Lords Pool is a still water situated to the south of Shrewsbury. A deal with the owner to rent the pool to the club was struck in the summer of 2019. Since then the club has organised many work parties to clear the pool of thick weed and open up the pegs.
Many species live in the pool, including common, mirror, ghost and koi carp into double figures, plus tench, bream, roach, rudd and perch. There is no night fishing on the pool.
