General Comments:

Details of your catches:

45 carp made up of great looking commons and mirrors. Also grass carp that fight like submarines. Mostly 20’s and thirties a couple of doubles and forties.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Worked hard due to the weather extremes and tried a range of tactics during the hottest part of the week. Boilie tipped with pop up corn worked best. When the water cooled the fish switched on and fishing was much easier taking singles when showing or over beds of bait. Rigs used ronnies and I’d rigs (standard for us)

Were the facilities what you expected?

Shower was good and nice kitchen area. Fridges and freezers were fine with lots of room for each peg. Designated charging point for each swim was really good.

Were you happy with them?

Yes, Mark and Anita and the other team members all work hard to keep everything tip top.
Must say the other anglers all did there bit etc by keeping things clean after use.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Certainly

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes, definitely.

General Comments:

Angling Lines were as always superb and I feel safe in the knowledge they are managing my booking. They were brilliant when I had to make a travel change and keep me in the loop at all times.
Mark is a credit to the fishery. He has tremendous knowledge of fishing in general and the nuances of each lake. Gives great advice and wants you to catch. He helped us when we had an issue with bait and always found time to talk when he was busy. Anita looks after the food and facilities and does a great job. They both are really positive and work tirelessly for the anglers.
We are already booked on for 25 and 26. Can”t wait!
