Details of your catches:

Number of fish caught by each angler = 10,17,19,30 & 64 (Total 140). Only 4 x Thirties 30.4oz Common, 30lb 6.oz Mirror ,32lb 0oz Common & 33lb 8oz Mirror Fishing only days and occasional nights, with many multiple catches (2 Landing Nets a must).

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Various Boilies as Hookbaits including boilies purchased via the lake owners. All methods caught from single baits to large beds of particles and solid bags.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes. The Lakeside Cabin was very tidy and more than adequate along with the Shower & toilet facilities. The Kitchen whilst well stocked with all kitchen utensils etc and a stove, freezer and fridge both the freezer and fridge was a squeeze for 5 Anglers. The lake is located within a stunning rural location and the wild boar in the adjoining fields added to the experience.

Were you happy with them?

Yes. The only recommendation would be additional fridge/ freezer space. However it should be noted we did not ask Alice to establish if space was available elsewhere

Yes. An ideal venue for all levels of experience

We will go back next year.

Details of your catches:

Despite tricky conditions due to constant thunderstorms we still managed to catch 85 fish. 3 x 30 plus 40 x 20 plus 35 x 15 plus A few under 10lb And a tench When we did get chance to fish, the fishing was manic, so much so that most of the time we fished with 1 rod!!

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Pop up over beds of pellet and sweetcorn Double fake maize in a solid bag seemed to be the most effective.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Absolutely. The cottage was a welcome addition when shelter from the storms was needed.

Yes very much so. Alice and her family are really nice and looked after us.

Can’t wait to return!

Details of your catches:

Slow start due to spawning, only 5 fish in the first 2 days and they ignored boilies, however we loose fed hoping to attract them. Went onto sweetcorn and we were away. 72 carp overall, best 40lbs 8oz, total weight 1550lbs. The boilies came good later in the week. Fished towards middle of the lake, generous baiting. 2 nets and assistance a must as we had several double takes and a couple of triples!

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

15mm house boilies and pellets, generous loose feeding and fished on the bottom.

Were the facilities what you expected?

The facilities exceeded our expectations, the property was well equipped and very clean.

Were you happy with them?

Definitely
