Details of your catches:

What can we say about the week, well what a week it turned out to be especially as fish spawned whilst we were there.

We took 37 fish with a forty plus common and over 17 x 30s with many aproaching 40lb. Ian also had a 37lb Grass Carp.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

We caught 95 per cent of fish on s2t steamies from Innovate Baits. Particle wasn't doing it we found whilst we were there.

Weed is not a issue and fish can be caught both to margins and open water.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Shower facilities are very clean but bait fridge could do with being bigger. Take french adapter for you chargers too.

General Comments:

Fish were in immaculate condition and what fighters too. It's a lovely lake and very quiet. French owner who lives on site doesn't bother you but pops over to say hello.

Swims are spacious and give plenty of access to all parts of lake however both swims have been stoned up which arnt really carp kit freindly and kit does tend to get covered when it rains. Suggestion would be to bark mulch the swims.

Conclusion a fabulous venue which is well worth a visit. Bailiffs are friendly too.

Details of your catches:

Had a total of 37 fish ranging from 22lb to 54lb. Very clean fish, hard fighting.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Most fish come from back off reeds & lilies. Particle and boilies both work well.

Yes

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Fishing to the open water on a single boilies on a semi fixed bolt rig with small beds of bait (20-30 boilies).

General Comments:

A quiet lake with a good head of fish. Lots showing on the far bank in front of both swims but most fish still came out from the open water. Fishing to the showing fish didn't bring many takes. The lake is shallow but fish were caught in all depths of water.

Details of your catches:

25 fish, biggest 38lb. All fish caught at night. Fish holed up in sanctuary of pads during the day made fishing frustrating. All fish were hard fighting and immaculate condition.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Simple rigs, all fish on boilies at night.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Simple but clean and adequate. Friendly owners of big farm house.

Were you happy with them?

Yes

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes, maybe when fish are bigger.

General Comments:

Lake very peaceful and tranquil. Could have caught a lot more fish if fished harder at night but very trying (tired).
