Food was very good, owners were polite and helpful. Fishing was a challenge, very mixed weather and conditions.

A tough week, very hot and some spawning. With Gary's advice we managed 15 fish to 45lb 2oz. All fish in mint condition and very hard fighting.

We used different baits from pop ups to bottom baits with lake pellets all catching fish.

General Comments:

Gary & Angeline fantastic hosts to us and our two children. We have had such a great time and already booked to return next May!

Details of your catches:

15 fish to 25lb 3oz only fished for 5 days with most fish out during the night.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Pop ups for all fish, the fish this week laid up under the bushes for much of the time. A bait boat is a real benefit. Shame I couldn't attract the bigger fish but a great week on a nice lake.

Were the facilities what you expected?

All the facilities are good.

General Comments:

Gary & Angeline have been great hosts, nothing is too much trouble. A nice lake for the future and it will benefit when the small fish from the flood have been removed. *Owner's note* As anglers catch the smaller carp we are moving them back to the stock pond :-)

Details of your catches:

27 fish in total to 41lb and 3 grass carp over 20lb. 3 new PBs for the group being 1 each in difficult conditions, a great weeks fishing.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Fishing the margins using Complex T pop-ups over lake pellet and particle using a Ronnie rig.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Better than expected

Were you happy with them?

Yes - the cabin was perfect to stay in if you didn't want to fish the night, had all the facilities to self cater but you would be crazy not to get the food package...Angeline's cooking is not to be missed!

Absolutely brilliant lake with a good head of fish. Gary bends over backwards to make sure you catch and have everything you need. Angeline's cooking makes the food package unmissable with every meal a treat to eat. Generally a great holiday made truly brilliant by Gary & Angeline, we will definitely be back next year.
