Angling Lines have been great and full praise to Mark Slade and Martin for looking after us for the whole week.

General Comments:

We can't thank Mark and Martin for their time, help and recommendations. One angler had an issue with his bait boat and Mark went out of his way to help him out.

Details of your catches:

6 fish between us in very tough conditions blowing north easterly most of the week with cold changeable weather not very spring like!

x1 41lber common biggest of the week
x1 33.5lb common
x1 24lb common
x1 22.5lb common
x1 19lb mirror
x1 17lb common

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Finding the shelves! The weed was high due to the cold weather which tends to die out during sunnier times so finding spots was difficult. You need a very good sonar like an RT4 and GPS to find the contours of the lake and clear spots essential if you want any success. Fishing with at least 3-4kg on each spot with boilie, maize and pellet chops/halves/crumb as gully’s can be steep. BIG LEADS!

Were the facilities what you expected?

Facilities whilst basic were enough for what we needed.

Were you happy with them?

On arrival to the lake the grass was very long and uncut, the cabin was dirty with muddy footprints and toilet paper on the floor. At first impression wasn’t too impressed but it was cleaned and grass cut during the week which made it look more of a holiday venue.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes I would. It’s not an easy lake and finding the spots is tricky especially during April weather but with the stock of fish and sizes hit the right areas and you could have some serious PBs on your hands! Mark the bailiff is a great guy really friendly, welcoming and funny he knows his stuff.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes always, Angling Lines has been great in the past and will continue to use you.

General Comments:

In all honesty the April weather we had was awful, that’s fishing in spring time it’s hit and miss. Personally I’d go in the summer when it’s gin clear fish on the move and as always they respond to the consistent weather conditions with a good south westerly. It’s a beautiful lake and I can imagine in the summer you would have an amazing trip.
