Fished it about 3years ago had about 50 pasties you used to be able to night fish it but think they stopped it

dont get me wrong mate the chalet and site was fine but the lakes were more like ponds with way to many pegs if you asked me would i stay again,for a relaxing week in the same chalet i had before then yes i would but would only take bit of match tackle for a bit of sport, i did have a look round when i was there and found this place and had a walk round the lakes there was 3 lakes small but bigger than rookely there was a few hauling 3-4lbers on bread of the top nearly went and got my tackle, defiantly not a specimen water but great for your dog mate and peace with fantastic views from lakes and cottages http://www.nettlecombefarm.co.uk/

you do know the specimen lake only has 8 pegs mate and if your not booked on you will stand very little chance of getting on,i went sept 2010 for a week stayed in chalet number 6 which backs on to match lake,chalet was nice match lake was fun on a waggler but no joy on specimen lake there are some nice fish in there mate but very very small lake ie you could cast to any margin from any peg if the tree' allowed,i couldn't over head cast at all from the woods swim but with the amount of water i had a overhead cats wasn't needed bait boats are needed to get under the tree's where i found hooked and lost a fish because i just had to many obstacles to get through my only option was to get in the lake go under the tree line with my rod and swim to a peg to land it,it was 90 degrees at the time and i'd paid £100 for 4 nights so was prepared to do that but lost the fish as i entered the water i think i would have been barred for life if tim seen me do it but i thought f it i ain't coming back and there where no rules saying no stalking any way neil i did enyoy the holiday and so did the wife but i'm sure there is better places you could find,i was even charged £5 for half hours fishing when i went back to the chalet for dinner and chucked my rod in while having a drink with the misses before dinner i even said i give you £25 to fish already and i only fished for half hour his reply was it' still a fiver. i also thought what an arrogant so and so the owner was and thought he was money grabbing to an extreme extent cider in the village up the road was very nice also a country farm shop with some fantastic meats nice place put fishing pools poor even the match lake has about 30 pegs on it and its less than an acre so if you go when its busy forget it

have a word with mrrusheslake (kim) small room next to toilet and anglers room with sky tv and comfy sofa's also if you booked bluecamp swim your misses could shout you easily,no cooking either the food package is nice and plentyfull think the room only cost about just over £100 for a week,but ask kim to be sure

Having caught all sizes of carp upto 41 I have over the years come to a conclusion based on fact 95% of the fish I have ever caught above 5lb get more mouth damage with barbless hooks than they do with barbed hooks,FACT

You should have a good one with them dates

What dates are you going?

Carl, just put in perfection loop in google.

I have done both trips to rushes one via Portsmouth to Caen that cost us about £400 in a van and we he'd to book a cabin as well.also 9hrs on the ferry so it doesn't save any time or expense,much better to go via euro tunnel and do the drive

I just use a bit of braid, Ian. Put the bait on like a normal hair stop and then tie the tag ends to your rig ring.There are a few products out now with bait screws and spikes designed for chod rigs.

Euro tunnel very good quick and cheap

Driving in France is very easy and most roads are flat and decent Rushes would be ideal for small number of you food is fantastic But if you get a ferry to Caen it's only 2-3 hour drive

Tried to book it for 2014 as it was there last weeks available and they needed the deposit straight away and I never had £500 at the drop of a hat they gave the week to there regulars,does look the perfect place for what you want Nige but don't think there will be any available dates

What did you catch mate?

looks cracking place hope you have a good one

Don't know but security will be patrolling it from Friday night But love a game of cat and mouse

my mate sent this to me today Cuttle Mill Fishery Just to set the record straight it is with regret to announce that the government is purchasing Cuttle Mill fishery due to the high speed rail line. It's not clear at this moment how the new owners will go forward with the fishery. But until then the fishery is open as normal until purchase is completed. The business is being sold as a going concern with the fish. Hope this puts all silly rumours to rest. May I take this opportunity to say a massive thank you to all our customers over the last 25 years. Kind regards from all of us at Cuttle Mill

sound i'm in but 30acres with 16 mostly double swims surely we could get a few more on,more people more fun less money too £450 per just for the fishing with travel bait food and beer could work out very expensive, we're not all on your wage neil

Well in mate, Did you ask about 2014 social?

well in mate

looking forward to pics and the rest of the tale

just seen on fb that as of 12 today all lakes closed due to high water levels

specimen lakes or pleasure lakes?

rushes lake at right time of year food package great,just don't arrive to early

I would give sapphire a swerve needs lots and lots of work and the train track next to lake is a horrendous
