Bruno is extremely friendly and very helpful, even showed us round his 2nd lake and told us where the local supermarket was.

Details of your catches:

Tough week for all 5 anglers on. The fish had clearly not woke up yet. I fished Willow peg as a single angler. And like everyone else I struggled. There were only 7 carp out for the week. In the end I landed 1 Mirror at 39lb, 4 bream and a tench.

I Lost 2 at the net which is fishing.

Note there are various marginal snags around the lake so I would advise to check where you plan to fish to see if they are any close to your spots. I fished locked up all week as they know exactly where they are.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Yellow baits on various rigs seem to worked over boilies, Bruno’s Particle mix and tigers nuts

Were the facilities what you expected?

The facilities were excellent. Just be aware that willow peg is the furthest point from the toilet but there are bikes supplied. The lodge sits between Apple swim and the two single swims where there are fridges, freezers and power points.

Were you happy with them?

Yes, clean with plenty of hot water.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes, second trip wilt AL and probably not the last.
