Budworth Mere

Budworth Mere

A large Cheshire mere, also known as Marbury Mere, with fishing on both sides of the water.

One of the quintessential Cheshire meres, Budworth (also known locally as Marbury Mere) is a large water of some 80 acres, with fishing available on both the south east and north west banks.


Despite the decent walk involved on both sides and the shallow nature of the mere, the fishing can more often than not be truly exceptional given the right conditions.


Species on offer include: Roach, bream, perch, hybrids, eels, tench and some large pike.
