Hi everyone, was just wondering is Mayesbrook Parks lakes 1 and 2 fishable as I haven't seen them being fished for a couple of years due to a lot of the fish getting killed and dying due to diseases.

Many Thanks, Ethan

I no the one i fished it as a kid to ... go the the bridge on the back lake there use to be some wooden beams sitting out the water dunno if the still there but the carp could always be found holding up there ... mabey 3-4 years back it had a blue alage bloom and alot of fished died in the back lake i see a good few 20s floating i think the back lake is finished.

The front lake was largely unaffected i to have not seen anyone fishing it in a very long time so i dunno if you still can or not.

I have seen a few lumps in there thoe 25+ a few years back i reckon they are still there mabey even bigger now ... weed is a problem in summer months.

I use to live in Barking and attended Eastbury School. We sometimes went sailing in Mayesbrook Park Lake. I do remember that it use to have an abundance of freshwater mussels maybe that is why it didn't suffer with pollution in those days.
