Mixed baits

Were the facilities what you expected?

Over all the facilities were good. I hadn't realised people would also be in the neighbouring house, so it was a little less tranquil, but the lake was ours in its entirety otherwise.

Were you happy with them?

Yes, we made best use of them.

Hard weeks fishing due to the hot weather but managed 6 fish. 12lb, 22lb, 29lb, 29lb, 31lb & 36lb

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Listen to Mick the owner as he knows the best spots to fish & the best bait to use.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Facilities were better than we imagined. Accommodation & outside seating areas were great, the hot tub & pool was an added bonus especially during the hot weather.

Yes.

Yes, it’s a great venue for families that want to fish & relax.

General Comments:

Mick the owner was brilliant, very knowledgeable, friendly and nothing was too much trouble for him.
There is the red lion pub down the road, supermarkets within 15 minutes & a McDonald’s less than 20 minutes drive which made the 12 year old happy!
Special mention to max the dog who mick kindly let us adopt for the week.

Details of your catches:

Really slow fishing , 6 fish landed 1 lost, 3,27,29,30,32,32 ,time of year,weather could of been contributing factor or we was rubbish at angling haha

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Plastics popped up, real bait was stripped by the biggest crays I've ever come across 6" mark ...arma mesh didn't stop them , fish didn't show until the last night and put on a full dolphin show, crays liked the fishy bait and there's a lot of them ,plenty of silvers too

Were the facilities what you expected?

Property,lake and grounds are well kept , Unfortunately it must be fly season and we killed 100s in main living space of property with STICKY STRIPS,(must have) , hot tub was good but I've had some ear ache about pool from family and kids as it was broken and (pool was no.1 on list of must have bringing family) Unfortunately it could not be repaired in time for us to use and remained somewhat green.

Were you happy with them?

House,nice
Pond-grounds ,nice
Hot tub ,nice
Flys, bad
Fishing, slow

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Unfortunately as it stands no ...but was made aware a new pool is happening , fishing can be hard at times so can't be helped.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes, we do

General Comments:

The owner was away for our holiday who's usually on site I believe and people speak highly of him and I get it , we met him the last morning and seemed a knowledgeable guy who I get the feeling would of made our trip feel different for the better ....and get the feeling he'd of got any problems sorted ?

Details of your catches:

The weather was great sunbathing weather, and not great fishing weather during the day, I caught fish up to 31lb 12oz, all the fish came from shaded margins, or under trees. All were mirror carp.

Catches were from 10am through to 12:30am, one coming at 1:30pm when is was above 35 degrees.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

I used house pellets, corn and boilies, catches came from pop up, and double fake corn.

Were the facilities what you expected?

The facilities were great, as they were the year before, the hot tub was a welcome area to spend an hour at sunset.
The pool does need cleaning.

Were you happy with them?

Very

Can't wait to go back next July.
Fingers crossed I'll catch more fish, and the crayfish will not be a problem.
