Oham Lakes


Recommended Posts

I'm going on holiday to Maltby-le-Marsh in a couple of days and discovered I will be close to Oham Lakes.  Years ago this used to be a well known (big) carp venue.  I've tried researching it on the 'net but can't find a home page.  There are some reviews saying great fishing,  but not specifying species.  Most reviews are pre. 2016.  Very little after.  Anyone got any up-to-date info please?

Had a look at Oham lakes whilst I was in the area.  The place is a sad reflection of what it once was.  The entrance is like going through Steptoe's yard.  I was told stories of carp in the high twenties but got the impression that's all they were - stories.  There were plenty of anglers there but no-one was fishing specifically for specimen carp with 2 (or more) rod set-ups.  I only saw one person actually fishing with rod and line.  Everyone else was using poles.  Not a bivvy in sight.  It certainly did not look a specimen carp venue to me.
