Fishery Website Design for Fishing Lakes, Day Ticket Venues & Angling Clubs
We Understand Fisheries, And What Anglers Are Looking For
Specialist WordPress websites for fisheries and fishing venues with online day ticket booking, catch reports, lake maps, gallery sections, and easy self-management. Built by people who understand your business.
SO Web Designs has been designing and building websites for fisheries, fishing lakes, and angling clubs for many years. We understand what anglers want from a fishery website, and what fishery owners need from one.
Anglers searching for day ticket venues, carp lakes, match fishing, or lodge holidays are increasingly doing so on their mobile phones, via Google, or through fishing forums and social media. If your fishery doesn’t have a modern, fast-loading website that ranks in local search results and makes booking easy, you’re invisible to a large proportion of your potential customers.
We build WordPress fishing websites that are easy for you to update, optimised for local search, and designed to turn visitors into bookings.
We offer the whole fishery website design package!

Lake Maps & Swim Information – Interactive or illustrated lake maps showing swims, pegs, facilities, and access points.
Species & Catch Information Pages – Dedicated pages for your lakes, species present, record catches, and stocking information, the content anglers actually want to read.
Catch Report & News Section – Easy-to-update section for posting recent catches, venue updates, and match results. Keeps anglers engaged and coming back to the site.

Easy Self-Management – Built on WordPress, you can update catch reports, add news, upload photos, and manage bookings yourself without any technical knowledge.
Online Booking Systems for Fisheries
it's far more than just a booking tool.
We integrate online booking functionality directly into your fishery website, allowing anglers to:
- Check availability and book day tickets, sessions, or lodge stays online
- Pay securely by card at the time of booking
- Receive automated booking confirmation by email
- View and manage their bookings
From your side, bookings feed directly into your calendar, with email notifications for new reservations. You can manage availability, block dates, set pricing, and process cancellations, all from a simple dashboard, without involving us.
We also work with the Catch fishing booking platform for fisheries wanting a specialist fishing-industry solution, and can advise on whether a bespoke WordPress booking system or Catch is the better fit for your venue.
E-commerce Fishing Websites
Fully Featured E-commerce Sites for Fishing Retailers
An online shop with 24/7 e-commerce functionality is among the most sought-after services for entrepreneurs.
People with an existing physical shop, or those looking to start a business, see an online shop as a way to gain greater exposure and higher profits.
SO Web Designs has created many online shops and can confidently guide you through this area.
This shop is designed for businesses selling physical products, but it can be easily adapted for products that are downloaded rather than delivered.
