General Comments:

Lake and Facilities very good but hard going 2 swims blanked! A thought for Mehdi and Caroline for their loss.

Details of your catches:

the catches were good with all fish in good condition and they all gave a good account of themselves testing the groups ability. Each memeber bettered their personal best with Dave Dodds having a dream session breaking the lake record for a mirror carp @ 57lb and all but a few being better than his personal previous best of 23lb

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

single baits over a bed of particle with a few freebie boilies fished tight to the far bank

Were the facilities what you expected?

the facilities were good, it was indicated on the information that a micro wave was available but this had been removed.

General Comments:

the weather was great but the water tempreture was just above freezing which made the fishing very difficult, we tried everything we knew and just managed to catch 7 fish I did think about advertising a set of secondhand fishing tackle for sale it was that bad. The lesson learnt is not to go too early. It was warming up when we left I would imagine the next group should do well.
