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!

General Comments:

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.

Details of your catches:

Mirror, Common and Grass carp to 41lb. Total of 27 fish.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Fishing in the margins due to the weather during the day and some open water during the night. Bait was typically Complex T Fluro pop-ups and some squid dumbbell pop-up on a Ronnie rig.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Better than expected. We stayed in the converted railway carriage, this was plenty big enough with all the necessary facilities for the 3 of us.

The lake is plenty large enough for 4 anglers. Our hosts Gary & Angeline were very welcoming and friendly. We opted for the food package and this was superb. Gary was very helpful with all kinds of fishing tips and tried his best to make sure you caught fish.

Details of your catches:

Smashed everyone's PB's, 27 fish caught to 41lb.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Due to the hot weather we fished tight to the margins under overhanging trees using Gary's rigs and bait! Pink worked well.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Better than expected.

Fantastic food with good sized portions and a great dining room overlooking the lake. Gary will do whatever he can to ensure you catch some decent fish. Listen to his advice and you'll be in for a great weeks fishing. Awesome weeks fishing made better by our hosts Gary & Angeline.
