One visitor who’s sure to spoil your enjoyment on a carping session is Mr Rat… you just can’t forget them once you know they’re around. Consequently all of our venues makes every effort to eradicate them, as any responsible owner would, and usually we get very few reports of rats. However, over the last few […]

As a party of four we have just returned from Old Oaks. On arrival we were met by Mehdi, who we found to be very polite and helpful. He gave us info. on the lake and a tour of the facilities, which are more than adequate – shower, washing facilities, electric power points and a […]
My usual trips to France usually consist of a group of anglers armed only with carp fishing tackle. We set our hearts on fishing a group of venues which we alternate each year. What’s the point in returning to the same lake year in year out, right? After catching many fish from Sky Lake I […]

I have been testing new waters for Angling Lines for a number of years now and each lake has its own challenges. Unfortunately with some of the new waters there is little or no information available to research for a forthcoming trip. 2nd visit to Blue Lake… what a transformation! My next visit to France […]

Whilst our friends Oz and Caroline were visiting us at Molyneux we took a day out from the lake and decided to go to see Monets Gardens at Giverny, which is approx. 9-10km from the lake and very easy to find. It is said that Monet was travelling between Vernon and Gasny when he glanced […]

However, if I’m brutally honest, a lake record […]
Last year Jim Kelly and I visited Blue Lake in almost monsoon conditions, with freshly dug swims with marl and mud everywhere, it was a trip to forget and we finished our trip early due to the adverse conditions. A view of Blue lake from swim 7 On our return to the UK we reported […]
