CL's with fishing

I think the filter system the club uses for various 'special features' a site may have should be very useful, however, I have tried searching CL's with the fishing on or near the site tab and of the 138 pages, approximately 1380 sites listed I would hazard a guess that less than 5% actually do have either fishing on site or very close by.

I honestly went through the list one rainy day (sad I know) but considering we're an Island nation I would hazard a guess that 95% on all CL's have fishing within 5 miles of their sites so therefore the 'CL's with fishing' tab is pointless.  

Clearly the better filter would be to list CL's that actually have fishing ON SITE  and not 5 miles away? This would be much more beneficial when considering which sites to book.

Also an available filter!

Doh! Thanks for that...but I've just randomly checked a site on this list and this is what I found...

'For the fishing enthusiasts, Parklands Caravan Park which is approximately 3 miles away has daily water tickets available for purchase.'

So while Its better to have a list of 108 sites over 1380 It looks as though there are still anomalies. 

It begs the question why not have this option for the tab for fishing sites instead of the general list of fishing within 5 miles?

They have both so I would think that adds choice for others even if not for you. 

Some might say why have game fishing as well as coarse fishing but, again, it’s different choices.

Quite right TW.

Fishing for small Roach on a canal is a bit different from up to your armpits spey casting for Salmon on the Tay.

Fortunately I genuinely like doing both depending on where I am at the time.
