Details of your catches:

Slow start due to spawning, only 5 fish in the first 2 days and they ignored boilies, however we loose fed hoping to attract them.
Went onto sweetcorn and we were away.
72 carp overall, best 40lbs 8oz, total weight 1550lbs. The boilies came good later in the week.
Fished towards middle of the lake, generous baiting. 2 nets and assistance a must as we had several double takes and a couple of triples!

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

15mm house boilies and pellets, generous loose feeding and fished on the bottom.

General Comments:

As much as I enjoyed my trip the pool the lodge and Alice was lovely.
However my first fish was 25lb so I was buzzing but over the week I only caught another 8 fish average weight 12lb the problem is one there is cray fish in there constantly nibbling at my bait and I wasn't aware they were in there also speaking to Alice she said they not had many anglers over last 18 months obviously with covid but the problem is they need to keep feeding the fish so they don't start feeding on natural baits and this is what they must be doing I strongly suggest they feed them with pellets whilst no one fishing and over the winter to keep them interested and keeping there weight on and also maybe get a few cat fish to eat the cray fish but that's just my opinion. As Alice said no one fishes in there family so to me they just need some advice on how to make it better as it has a lot off potential but overall I had a nice relaxing time, thanks Spencer moore

Details of your catches:

100+ fish caught. 5 x30's to 38lb and a 45lb Mirror!
Average size was around 22lb

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Halibut pellets and bright pop-ups worked well.
Fishing to where the carp were showing and don't disregard the shallows!

Were the facilities what you expected?

Been to this lake a few times now, and always forget just how good the facilities are!

Were you happy with them?

Facilities are brilliant! Lakeside cottage has everything you could possibly need and very clean. Swimming pool is also great and such a big positive for this venue and only a few yards from the lake!
