LAKE INFO

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE HAVE NEW CAT N' CARP LAKE PRICES FROM 1ST JANUARY 2021


ALL FISHING ON ALL LAKES MUST BE PRE BOOKED AND PRE PAID FOR IN ADVANCE! 

You cannot book via Facebook so please do not ask too! 

PREPAID LOYALTY CARD HOLDERS WILL NEED TO PHONE AND BOOK.


 To book and pay by card over the phone,

There will be absolutely NO exceptions to this! 

 

 OUR SHOWER ROOM IS OPEN - £1 PER 10 MINUTES 


Please note that there is No Entry allowed onto the Catfish N' Carp Lake 

without first pre-booking and pre-paying for a place with our shop.


WE HAVE A NEW UNOFFICIAL CATFISH LAKE RECORD OF 41 LB -7 OZ'S


This 2 acre lake has 12 very well spaced swims, and is limited to 10 anglers.

Each swim has it's own designated area of water.

Pegs 4 & 5 are a reservable double peg, which can be great for a social weekend.


This lake has rapidly built a reputation for super, hard fighting fish. 

With a stock of around 300 Carp to 26 lb - 14 oz's, including some Grassies to 15 lb+,

 and 31 Wels Catfish to 41 lb - 7 oz's, although these have bred well, 

so our Catfish population is expanding, with Kits between 1 lb and 4 lbs.

Don't be surprised to catch a Perch, Barbel or Chub either,

as these are left over from when this lake was a match water.


The fish in this lake respond well to heavier baiting, especially carp pellet and fishy or meaty boilies,

so don't be afraid to use a few kilo's in a session.


To improve the carp fishing on this lakein January 2020 we moved 12 large common carp

 from our Specimen Carp Lake to this lake, six of the Carp are 'proper' twenties,

4 at 21-22 lbs, 1 at 25 lbs and the biggest at 26 lb - 14'oz's.

The other six carp are between 16 - 20 lbs

hopefully this will give you all something else to aim for.


POPULAR BAITS TO TRY

 New Shimano Isolate LM94 liver and fishmeal boilies are banking the majority of catches.

Dynamite Baits Complex-T has seen a recent return to form, 

together with Sticky Baits Krill, Bloodworm and Manilla

Nash Instant Action range, Strawberry Crush, Candy Nut Crush, Nash Scopex and Squid, Hot Tuna, 

have also accounted for numerous Cats and Carp on the bank.

Mainline Cell, is always a trusty backup.


Prebooked/Prepaid 24 Hour+ Overnight Sessions are available on this Lake.  

One non-fishing guest is welcome.

If they wish to stay overnight a £5 camping fee will be charged.
