Hi All

 

Just thought I would add my 2 pennys worth!!!

 

I have known the owner of Wildmoor for 3 months (not long I know) and to be honest he is one of the most genuine people I have met. He has ploughed an absolute fortune into Wildmoor to make it a real natural environment and the cabins are absolutely first class.

 

Now this is not a sales pitch by any stretch of the imagination and I cant speak genuinely about the stocking of the lake as I dont know but the owner actually said to me he cant understand why people think they would lie about the stock, his words were "why would I invest all of this money into this business only to leave or remove the 1 item that is key to its success" namely the carp!!

 

Like I say I havent known him for long but im usually a fairly good judge of character and I dont believe he is the sort of person to be sat back ripping people off.

 

Anyway the waethers starting to warm up and the carp are starting to bite!!! tight lines to all for 2012

Hi, I had that same conversation with I think her name was lesley from Wildmoor she said about fish stocks being as stated in there blurb, It just seems strange that everyone that fishes there doesnt catch much, I was going there myself but got put off by the negative feedback, one of our members is ther this week and promises to do a report about it, maybe they are so pressured the fish in the lakes that they have become difficult to catch all I know is that they are always fully booked so they must be getting something right.

Hi Simmons

 

I agree it is prbably a pressured water although I think they do keep the number of fisherman down where possible, I dont believe it get likes say a broadlands where every swim is rammed lol

 

There are some stunners in there but I have not fished it yet. I see it being the same as every water if you blank it can be frustrating but I suppose if you have spent alot of money on a cabin and blanked it can be very frustrating hence the negative feedback that is perhaps just people blowing off a bit of steam.

 

Personally I wouldnt see it as a runs water and alot of those gravel pits arent runs waters and thats what I like about them.

 

It is an absolutely stunning location though but is booked up and I cant get on :(

I fished the first cabin swim (nearest the gate and landed a couple, but the owner advised me to fish at the other end of the lake near his bungalow (not a cabin swim)

My observations were--the cabin swims dont produce, you have to move where the fish show themselves, this can be a bit of a bu.... if you have payed out a small fortune for a cabin-but its what you would do under normal circumstances-wouldnt you-
