Details of your catches:

2x40s 4x30s 3x20s 1x7lber 1x75+catfish

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Definately using villefonds bait made the difference,we found using inline semi-fixed leads resulted in very positive takes, using backleads also helps as they tended to fight hard in the margins.

Were the facilities what you expected?

yes the facilities were as expected,clean and well kept

Were you happy with them?

yes absolutely no complaints, John and mark were very helpful with tactics and spots to fish,they visit once a day for catch reports and to generally make sure there aren't any problems.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

I'd recommend this venue to any of my friends without hesitation

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes the service received was friendly and very professional.Even when there was a lightening ferry strike Angling Lines made sure that we could get home,extremely professional.

Fantastic place, Fantastic people, Fantastic food great advice from john and mark. Although food package will result in going on a diet!

Details of your catches:

21 fish including 7 x 40's

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Cast to showing fish with house bait.

Were the facilities what you expected?

There was a mobile home as expected!!

Were you happy with them?

To be honest no. Scruffy, not sufficiently reliable electricity and fridge. Overpriced for facilities.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Not particularly. Have to say John and Debbie did their utmost to be helpful and put problems right. They could not have done more. Acceptable for scruffy anglers but not couples. Although would have preferred to be left alone and not daily visits.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Your company yes.
