We have just heard from lake owner Sebastien that one of this week's anglers has banked Blue Lake's first 40 with a carp of 42lb.
And it looks like the anglers (Denton group of 4) are in for a busy time this week. Early Monday morning and they have already chalked up over 20 carp and a new lake record.
We'll keep you posted.

First Anglers Catching Well!
The first 2 anglers to fish Blue Lake this year are having a great session.
They have had 45 carp so far... biggest was a 35lb mirror & the majority are 25lb to 30lb+, with a good mix of commons and mirrors. They've also had 3 sturgeon to 30lb.
They've been fishing mixed pellets and boilies & single baits over any flavour bait is working at present. The weather was cold at first with only 2 fish on Saturday, but by Tuesday the weather had changed and they were back on the fish. It has been warm in day and is 16°C today. Ian has had 31 fish from swim 2. Darren started in swim 10 and changed later in week - he's on 14 so far.
More news as we get it.
