Details of your catches:

I fished swim 11 and landed 28 carp to 46 pounds. I also lost approximately 12 fish

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

I fished boilies on a d rig over partiblend and boilies using a bait boat, fishing for a bite at a time rather than baiting heavily. For context I used 20kg of particles and 15kg of boilies.

Were the facilities what you expected?

I've fished Lepinet before and the facilities are good and I was pleased that there is now an extra toilet at the venue

Were you happy with them?

Yes - good showers and washing area, plenty of chest freezers for bait and upright fridge freezers for food and drink plus multiple charging points

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes Lepinet is a great venue and has some really good fish. However, as per other reviews it is important to be aware of the number of snags and also gravel bars, so upgrade your tackle and line accordingly when you fish this venue.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

I have total faith in Angling Lines and the service they provide. I would particularly like to acknowledge the help from Jo Noble while I was at Lepinet this time as I had significant issues with my car; Jo rescheduled my return ferry on multiple occasions and I was able to book an extended stay at Lepinet while the car issues were resolved.

General Comments:

The fishing was very prolific given I was not fishing nights and probably only fished the equivalent of five full days given all the disruption caused by my vehicle. Also to say the other anglers on the lake were brilliant and took me to the supermarket to get more supplies and offered to drive me to collect my car when it was ready; this support was very much appreciated.

General Comments:

I lost a lot of fish due to very large amount of bad snags which need to be sorted for fish safety and happier anglers. The are also some huge shoals of poisson chat fry which i was told there were none.
*Angling Lines note* Thank you for your feedback. We wouldn’t usually describe Lepinet as a snaggy lake but as you fished from swim 6, which is at the end of the bank, it has the most access to the margins where underwater snags are more common. We’ve now added more detail to the lake description to make this clearer, thank you for bringing this to our attention.
