The Bailiff found time to fish the specimen lake for a few hours this week. He has observed some very big fish feeding under overhanging features which are still to be cut back to make fishable. However, he landed a pristine 10.5 lb common carp at approx 2.30pm. It took 20 mins to land and went off like a steam train. “These fish are very powerful and extremely fit”, The Bailiff says!!
That's 3 x fish landed and one bumped in 8 hrs of fishing over the last two
weeks. Not too bad for a first attempt and very positive feedback for
this soon to be open specimen water!!
On the day ticket lake this week. we
have been mostly ....retrieving lost rods!! Please do not leave your rod
and tackle un-attended at any time. Please remove your line from the
water!! If you want to stretch your legs or leave your peg.
8 x fish landed on Sunday between 5 anglers and a few broke off.
Ryan and Bradley have returned after a long summer and are catching carp again, which seems to be the main reason that they "live and breathe!!" Good for them!!
Rain due this week...,marvelous!!!
Tight lines and may the force be with you!!
P.S Don’t forget we have released our new ´Bass Experience´

Whether you're fishing from shore or by boat, try areas that have a lot of hiding places like under bridges, cliffs, and rocky ledges. Bass love to stay in those places to be able to ambush their prey. Any spot that could provide cover for the bass is usually a good spot to start.

Carps do love cover and they are mostly found in weedy areas. Bass like anything that moves in the water, whether fish, tadpoles, frogs, or artificial lures, they'll go for it. :P They are very curious, hence, they will strike anything that attracts their attention. So don't hesitate to use metallic spinners and brightly colored lures - they often work out, you know. :)
