If you call into Eric's the guy who runs the front pond works there. I was talking to him today and he was telling me about the work that he has put in there with secure fencing and extra fish. Think his name was Matt, if you do pop in there are cards on the till to get the information.

Thanks, I will post some pics on here if owt comes out. Got a bit of new tackle to try out too & some new bait so it's should be exciting!

 

 

Does anybody know what type of bottom it is weed,gravel or silt ?

i fished 3 lakes back in the 90s for 2 years there is a variety of features ie bars gullys and the bay at the back ,that always had barbed wire across (out of bounds)its not an easy water ,but had some nice fish in ,i remember there was a big flat hump mb 10ft by 10ft rising up from the bottom if you go to the back of the pond and look towards the car park try to line up the telegraph poles and its about 60-70 yrds out just have a plumb around till you find it ,always was worth a few fish of there, tight lines !!!!!
