General Comments:

We really enjoyed the lake, the fish fight like nothing else, the guys running the lake were so helpful, we will certainly be returning. 10/10 from all of us.

Details of your catches:

Not very much as fish were spawning

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Were the facilities what you expected?

Shower block and electrics were about a mile away from the lake, toilets looked like something off a horror film.

Were you happy with them?

Showers were sometimes cold, right hand shower took your skin off and left hand shower was like someone dribbling over you.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

No, fish Calleaux if you are coming here as it is right next to the facilities.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes

General Comments:

Arrived, was told the owner would draw our pegs, didn’t see owner until about 6pm by which time we had to sort out where we was fishing by ourselves with the other fisherman ( this alone could ruin a fishing break if it went badly) Fridges and freezers are a mile away with no locks supplied and are accessible by other fisherman. No UK plugs or adapters to charge batteries etc plus there are only 3 sockets for both lakes. Showers and toilet are in a terrible state, just about usable but don’t bring your Mrs!! *Owner note* Thank you for your feedback and sorry that the facilities did not match expectations. We will check the showers to make sure they are functioning correctly. Regarding hot water, occasionally if a number of people have just used the shower it does mean a short wait for the boiler to catch up. Regarding the swim draw, as per our supplied rules, unfortunately anglers must arrive at 10:30am in order to meet the bailiff (as he has to also visit other lakes afterwards). If anglers arrive later then the bailiff is not available to return until the evening.

General Comments:

A very snaggy lake hard to fish the far margins due to snags and sunken trees but there are markers already on the good spots. There are a lot of nice big carp held up in the fenced nature reserve. *Angling Lines note* Thank you for your feedback, we have discussed the carp beyond the net with the owner. He assures us that the net has been checked recently and does not allow carp to move between the two sides. So, whilst there are some carp in the nature reserve, these are not part of the Autels stock :-)
