Details of your catches:

We had 20 carp up to 57lb 8oz for the week, which given the weather conditions and late spawning was a good result! We had 4 fish over 40 with the majority left being in the 30's

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

We fished big beds of bait of Essential Cell, and Active Bait solutions Maple Nut. We bought the party blend particle onsite and brought our own dynamite baits hemp. We also used a sack of the lakes Coppens pellet. Bait was sent out to the far margin with hoppers filled.

Were the facilities what you expected?

We had shared access to the lodge that had a lovely area to eat your food (we just took the food package back to our peg). The area had a shower and separate toilet to be shared with the whole complex. Each peg had its own charging area for all electrical equipment, we had a shared chest freezer and drawers in a fridge all within the price paid.

Despite the facilities being shared with all the lakes they were never really that busy and the longest I waited for the showers was 5 minutes on 1 occasion.

The facilities also had a full kitchen area with hob and oven and microwave which is an added bonus.

Were you happy with them?

Facilities modern, clean and tidy and all that you need for a weeks fishing.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Definitely would recommend to anyone as this is a well run venue, everything explained on arrival and left to relax and fish for the week... you can't ask for more!

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

The process through angling lines is great and we will be using this in future, having the option to split monthly payments you don't even notice paying it off and you have the security of the holiday being protected and all travel looked after!

General Comments:

I would highly recommend taking the food package on the weeks holiday, Anita makes sure you are well fed with a morning baguette with sausage, bacon and egg and the evening meals are great especially the Sunday roast!
