Has anyone fished here lately? If so what did it fish like? And has anyone fished the new specimen lake? I go down in one of the log cabins for 4 days on the 8th of june cant wait! :D
 
Moggy, I was down March/April with the kids, It was just after the last heat wave and the day we went it dropped to 3'.
We still caught bream, tench and carp.

I only ever fish the first lake and never heard of the specimen lake, You sure about that?

Good to know, I'm taking the kids back end of June.
If you are there for a few days try the first lake, You can float fish and ledger on alrms. Some good carp to double figures.

Hi Moggy-R,

Try the first lake (before you hit the main complex) for specimens, on the other (none match ponds) fish to the islands. Go on to the likes of partridge (match lake) after the match and fish in the margins, make sure you're tackle is up to the job as you will have some clonkers.

Good luck and enjoy

Let us know how you get on
