Following the appointment of Gordon Green the lakes will now be managed between
the two of us on an equal footing those of you who have met Gordon, will Im sure, have found him to be fair but firm and easy to get on with.
I get asked a lot about night fishing and the answer is that only syndicate members are allowed to night fish no exceptions, sorry.
Can I remind you to fill in all areas of the day ticket when you visit the fishing hut to pay
and make sure that you have the counterfoil with you for inspection.
Also remember that this should be the first thing you do before you even decide which swim you want to fish.
If some one enters the lake who has been up to the fishing hut and paid and chooses a peg where
your tackle has been left before you have paid then he has the right to that peg.
There is no excuse for saying "I was going to go up and pay in a minute" !
A recurrence of this practice will lead to a season ban.
Bait boats are not allowed on any of the lakes.
In my absence if there is anything you see going on that is disruptive or distructive
please let me know on 07866 638379

Hello John just like to report of a right result I had last month at the specimen
lake in a short day session banking 8 fish including 3 high doubles ranging from
16 to 19lb, along with 4 twentys ranging from 22 to 29lb and the biggest of the day topping
the scales at 31lb 15oz, I will attach a few pictures from the day for you- dont know if the
30 is the biggest this season, or one of the biggest in the lake? be nice to hear mate.
All fish were caught on one rod fishing with small bags from 7 different swims,
just travelling lightly and moving at any signs of showing fish,
and as you can see the rewards were reaped. Will wait to hear back from you about the 30, many thanks.
