Hi Beech,found this, may be of use to you

 

Tourists usually only find Glyncorrwg by accident. It lies at the head of a cul-de-sac valley well off the beaten track. On the outskirts are two narrow coarse lake a bit over 2 acres apiece. Depth is variable up to 10ft or so and averages 6-8ft with excellent mature banks. Set in a deep narrow valley the surroundings are both attractive and scenic. Fed by small mountain streams the water is generally very clear perfect conditions for the growth of elodea crispa weed of which there is plenty. It's easy enough to clear a suitable swim fortunately. The bigger fish are notoriously skilled in using it to their advantage so use tackle hefty enough to cope. Bronze bream roach and tench inhabit the upper lake while the lower one has a few tench and plenty of common and mirror carp. You won't get mammoth specimens here (the carp weigh-in up to around 18lbs) but for all-year pleasure fishing in an unusual and attractive location it's hard to beat.
