I
have fished at this complex for a while now it is a 4 lake complex with good
facilities and parking, There are 3 main lakes and a heavily stocked match
lake to chose from, there is a small supply of bait on site when I say small
I mean that as in a small choice,
but
feed pellets are available
in various sizes are available from 1-25 kg bags. There is an onsite sit
down cafι which serves up some lovely grub and a clean well maintained
toilet.

Match Lake
As
you enter the fishery you will find this lake on your left which is a
rectangular shaped lake which is about an acre in size which contains approx
20 pegs which are well positioned and very stable,
This
lake has and average depth of between 5-6 feet up to about 8ft in the middle
and about 2 feet in the margins and slightly less the closer you get towards
the bank side hoardings, it is heavily stocked with mirror and common carp
and a few ghosties they run from 1lb 7lb the average being about 2lb, it
is possible to catch in excess of 200lb of carp on the right day using the
correct method, many weights of this size have been recorded I personally
have recorded two 200lb match weights which did put a rather large smile on
my face both times, there are two main ways to really bag up on this lake
and they are 1) fishing shallow on the pole and draw the fish to within a
few feet from the bank using pellet on the hook and feeding micros/slop and
tapping the water and the other paste down the edge and in front of you this
is also a guaranteed way of bagging up. This lake has oxygen pumps built in
so this fish are very fit and healthy and for there size they fight all the
way to the net.
The
lake is a day ticket venue but due to it being a match lake it is advisable
to check on weekends that it is not pre-booked for a match.
The
other good news is this venue has a great supply of feed pellets and corn
etc which can be purchased in bulk from the bailiff which is always handy as
I have personally used in excess of 4-6 pints of pellet when the carp are
having it.
