The Lake

Open April to October inclusive. A five acre stream fed Lake with depths near the source of three feet and at the dam end over twelve feet. The Lake is situated on private agricultural land so no permit is required and night fishing is legal. At the shallow end the lake bed has a sandy bottom with large sandbanks along the far, tree-lined margin and deeper pockets towards the near-side bank. The Lake then runs through a large lily bed in front of the cabin and as the lake deepens towards the dam end the lake bed becomes silty.

Stocked in 2002 with over 100 fast growing Italian strain Carp a few of which are now topping the 38 lb mark whilst the majority remain in the low to mid teens and a few in the mid twenty bracket. All are hard fighting fish and a pleasure to catch. The lake also contains fifty Catfish varying in size from mid teens to around 50 lbs . There is also a large head of Pike running to 20 lbs or more. These now compliment the existing stock of Carp some of which in 2002 weighed in the low teens. The lake also contains plenty of good sized Perch and Roach. NO poisson chat!

Swims 1 and 2 are situated either side of the lily pads and close to the cabin. The swim to the left of the cabin has both a high and low water options and large bivvy area whilst the swim to the right of the cabin is large enough to acommodate 2 bivies and/or 2-3 anglers with ease. Swims 3 and 4 are on the far, tree-lined bank, well spaced and with deeper water in front of them. Swim 4 is at present only fishable at high water but this is soon to be remedied. These are only accessible by boat (provided) as it is a long walk around the dam over difficult terrain. Bait boats are permitted and indeed desireable for fishing the tree-lined margin provided they are used responsibly. Swim 3 is a generously sized double swim whilst swim 4 is a single, best fished when the water is high.
