Hi Andy, used to fish it a bit in my younger year! The lake is very deep so stick to the margins with really smelly bait due to the colour of the water! The fish like to hang around in the snags so that's always a good bet. Fish wise not sure on numbers but believe they go to around 24lb. Simple silt type rigs because you at right the bottom is pretty much very soft clay! Hope this helps

Did 48hr @ sawmills and the only thing I could catch was a roach, tryed everything from a bolie to maggot's on a clip, I pre baited underneath the pilon where I fished (far left). Interesting water would fish there again, any other help would be brill
