All Liverpool park lakes are council owned and free fishing .... (apart from needing your EA licence)
I believe you do have to register (It's Free) with the council though .... Have a read of THIS --it explains it to you
Not sure about what are in them --I haven't fished any of the park lakes for about 40 odd years --but if you go into Tasker's and ask either Cliff or Jimmy they'll probably be able to tell you a bit about them ......

Yes Cliff's still there -- He's worked for Tasker's for about 25 years
I know him from when Taskers were in County Road before they moved to Utting Avenue
Thanks fellas i heard some local new today from another fisherman that newsham part was cleared of pike i do hope this is not true mind you they couldn't have got them all i had a run the other day on a live bait yay
Hi rains........All Liverpool parks r free but u must have permit off the council...Download a form off the web/fill it in/hand it into a Onestop Shop or Walton hall park leisure centre and u will get a life time pass...Plenty of perch in SP.caught over a 100 in the last 2months all small sad to say..never tried for pike.
Yeah i got pulled over that one m8 i showed them my ea one and they said i needed a permit abit silly really kinda no point but i have some on the way so all good i have never fished Stanley for some reason its closer to me but i dont know i just like newsham better maybe am just used to that water more thanks for the info tho tony
Stanley Park
There is absolutely no charge for fishing stanley park, also you'll need a rod licence and a Liverpool city council park permit to fish parks in liverpool.
Also stanley comprises of three sections two smaller ponds either end and a large one in the middle, you can only fish the one in the middle. Only learned this the hard way after getting caught by the park warden.....oops!
As for preditory fish, there is plenty of reasonable sized perch, lods of roach and tench, however been trying to bag myself a pike on lures and spinners, however nothing so far, from loads of feedback from other anglers there are pike there, but got a theory that with the place being loaded down with small perch, the pike are spoilt for choice if you get my meaning.
But overrall a good little park, some session's i've been pulling them out every 15mins, crackin park.
