THE LAKE

THE LAKE LAYOUT

THE FISH

Fish in the lake include:

Common Carp, Mirror Carp, Grass Carp, Koi Carp, Crucian Carp,Bream
Roach, Rudd, Perch, Pike, Gudgeon, Sun Perch, Eel and Tench

The lake has 10 purposely made swims / pegs, sited around the lake for your comfort,
Each peg has a 2M x 1.5M level area for positioning for seating, tackle etc

After purchasing the lake in June 2010, it was full of weed and lily pads, it was not
fished for many years, so we cleared the majority of the weed and cut back the lily pads
in the summer of 2010. The lake also contained some very large Carp along with
many other species, such as Pike, Bream, Roach, Rudd etc, these fish are still present.

We have also added the following fish to the current lake stock, approximately
300 fish that are designed to give maximum match / day fishing pleasure, the lake also
has many other fish to a current maximum weight of well over 30lb

*** FISH STOCKING NEWS ***

150kg Mirror and Common Carp from 8oz to 3lb

20kg Grass Carp from 8oz to 2lb

30kg Tench from 1lb to 5lb

So far we have found the best bait for the carp is a small handful of pellets and a
little corn thrown into the swim, followed by some Sweetcorn on the hook, we
have been generally getting catches of 20 fish in 3-4 hours fishing, sometimes
more!, so great fun and easy for a small competition, or fantastic for the kids, as
they can go home with some pictures and stories of the one they caught or the one
that got away!
