I went in may this year. Fishing was is really good. We was at the far end of the lake by the woods and by the landing stage. Loads of good carp. I was sucsessful with maggot clips from korda with a good stick mix. They seemed to like redband bird seed in your spod mix if you can get hold of it. its a good partical bait like hemp or good to mix with. Also i was sucsessful with running rig with braid hook link with a artifical maggot (red) threaded round the hook and a artifical piece of corn above bollie with the sides chopped off and the your hair stop. When you get there ask about the submerged tyres and the post at the far end of the lake.
Good luck
