Details of your catches:

Fished very slow 6 fish all WK, we expected a least 1 fish per day per angler, we have all been carp fishing for long time .

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Bottom baits balanced baits fished tight to snags swim 4 unfishable every fished lost in snag dangerous for fish good chance of feathered fish.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Need updating everything worked OK. Timber building needs updating. Swims need proper steps leading down to them and sleepers and gravel in them flint and mud at moment. When rained very very slippery because mud slopes wood hand rails all loose

Were you happy with them?

Shower worked OK electric fine to charge boats phone

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Need to time fishing right or could end up with camping trip instead of fishing. Swims need updating dangerous in rain because of flint and mud. Hand rails need fixing. Need to spend money on lake could be lovely need to cut all snags out of lake for safety of fish.

General Comments:

General Comments:

Mehdi was outstanding, the venue top notch with a excellent head of well kept fish. The water level at the venue was approx 3 feet above normal due to the heavy rain over the previous winter months, this meant peg 4/5 was slightly smaller than normal but still plenty of room and not a problem netting any fish. Access is good to and from all the pegs with no problems unloading and loading. You have to be on your rods at all times if you're fished tight to or in the snags locked up, remember the fish are very large and know where the snags and bars are. Also remember the lake rules about leaving your rod unattended. No problems with the shats and a small problem with the rats, they are coming in from the flooded field next door, however 1 call to Mehdi sorted that out. I am sorry the read the problems encountered by the next group, we had no such difficulties. I cannot understand how a venue can change in a matter of hours from being excellent to a dump??? I think I speak for the other 3 anglers as they are of the same opinion as myself. Excellent venue, top notch owner, well done Mehdi, keep up the good work. P.S to turn up at a lake and expect to catch fish as a right is asking to fail you have work for them. That's why it's called fishing not catching.

Details of your catches:

Poor fishing due to weather and lake being hammered week before, 1 prolific 24 hour period! Peg 5 - 7 fish biggest 48 mirror Peg 3 - 5 fish biggest 49 mirror Peg 1 - blank

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Various

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes

Were you happy with them?

Yes, but do feel lake could do with a bit of work, massive rat problem and poussant chat problem and swims a bit small, but over all great venue and owner top bloke!! **Owner's note** Regarding rats, I used poison last week and will continue to do so each month. Poisson chat, I'm afraid this is the only week we have seen a problem with them, since march to now nobody else had any issues, we will keep an eye on this.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes, but pick your week carefully
