Happy with angling lines and the venue

Details of your catches:

First time fishing the lake.
Landed 32 carp, from 22lb-36lb, majority between 28lb-32lb
3 grass carp, 25lb, 30lb, 35lb,
4 small Wels catfish
and we lost 8 carp all week ! ??

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

On the first day we noticed that we had a good amount of poisson chat (small catfish) so stopped using pellets and boilies completely and just used whole and crushed tigers, hemp and a bit of sweetcorn and baited little and often with bait boat!
Used simple blowback hair rigs with barbless hook size 4 with double tigers, on all rods!
Fishing open water and to snags!

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes, as you would expect. Usual basic stuff - hot shower, clean toilets, power source, etc... all good for us, just what we needed!

Were you happy with them?

Yes

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes, lake is lovely looking natural as you would expect, good features to fish to as well. Fish average size not massive but if you get it right you get plenty of bites all week to keep you busy!

Details of your catches:

An outstanding week! We ran out of space on the catch report form.
43 fish landed, a mix of King carp and Grass Carp.
6 x 40lb+ biggest 47lb
15 x 30lb+ biggest 39lb
the rest were 20lb+

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

we used a LOT! of bait 65kg of particle with tigers on the hook, fished at long-range, this Lake would be hard to fish without a baitboat.
There are Poission Chat in the lake but they don't touch the tigers they do however seem to like maize.
We moved over to stiff booms with a combi.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Basic but ok, there is no freezer so gas fridge needed

Were you happy with them?

Yes clean
