Tyram fisheries was originally excavated in the last world war in the 1940's, Sand and gravel was used to build the runways at near by RAF Lindholme and after the war the lakes were used as a filtration system for the main gravel works behind the complex (now a nature reserve).

Some time in the 1970's fish were stocked as fingerlings but not with the intention of fishing and over the years various fish have been stocked and also some have managed to breed. The lakes have also undergone a number of changes which leads us to when we took over in 1994. We had the carp lake but this was joined to the jet ski lake and a large long lake. Our first job was to block off the connection between the carp lake and the jet ski lake, once this was complete We netted the lakes so see what stock we had and transferred the pick of the bunch between the lakes. A lot of the fish were old stunted common carp with the odd mirror carp. We sold 2000lb of the commons and this funded our first stocking in the members carp lake.
