kevinp Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 does any one know any thing about the new lake in lenwade in norfolk i think it is near the bridge pub Quote
kevinp Posted January 18, 2008 Author Report Posted January 18, 2008 dont know mate the only thing i know is it was once angling directs lake it is near the bridge lakes Quote
salokcinnodrog Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 I'll try to find out about Lenwade, don't think I have anything new on it. There are loads of Lakes around Witchingham and Lenwade area that are/were privately owned or syndicate Quote
scottspurs77 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 cant say i've heard of it mate, i think tom boulton had a lake right next to the bridge. With the connection between boulton and angling direct i guess it could be the same water. If you walk up the left hand side of bridge lake as you see it from the pub i believe boultons old lake is on other side of wire fence. This is only what i've heard over years, dont treat it as gospel. Quote

scottspurs77 Posted January 18, 2008 Report Posted January 18, 2008 wilson still has his place in lenwade, up behind steel works. Would be interested in hearing of a new lake opening over there, so much water around lenwade its ridiculous. Didnt shelleys reported norfolk record come from charity? Quote
kevinp Posted January 18, 2008 Author Report Posted January 18, 2008 that is tom boultons old lake i know that is carp to 40lb i also herd it £390 a year but dont have any phone numbers to ring oh i also herd shelley is on there Quote
blank Posted January 20, 2008 Report Posted January 20, 2008 the lake behind the bridge lake pub is now owend by a man called mo lake is now called mos lake theres 30 carp from upper 20s to 40s a nice old lake full of pads. 40 members only and theres a few places left i think and yes slim jelly is on there i was put off by the amount of work going on around the lake tractors digging swims out mud every where and the fact that hes digging out 2 more lakes right beside the syndicute one these will b day ticket.300 is the price . in a year or so it will be a nice lake when things have calmed down a bit but with 40 members u might struggle with swims in the summer.

barry61 Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 Taswood lakes according to there site are opening up some new lakes there so this might be something to do with this Quote
scottspurs77 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 the tas syndicate will be about to start its third year, so i doubt its those. Quote
jimshelley Posted April 19, 2008 Report Posted April 19, 2008 dont forget kingy 6 differant 40s . 3 miles down the road. uncle jim KIR Quote
vickyh17 Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 The Bridge Inn has its own lakes which are brilliantly kept by their bailiff. £5 day tickets, £100 season tickets. They have the best stretch of the Wensum River, a huge lake with 37lb carp and two fun ponds. Barbel, best in Norfolk, was caught couple of weeks ago at 14lb 9oz. It was in the Anglers Mail and the EDP. Tom Boulton's lakes are private, syndicate members only and were bought last year by a partnership. For the Bridge Inn lakes you go and fish and pay when you see the bailiff or when the pub is open. Food is take away and is great. Where have you people been that you didn't know all this? The lakes have been there for years, it's not a secret !! Quote
vickyh17 Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 Tom Boulton lakes will never be allowed to be day tickets as Mo doesn't have the facilities that needs, like toilets and running water. If you want his number ask in The Bridge. Membership is £200 for silver and £300 for gold. There is no new lake in Lenwade. John Wilson's place is absolutely private as is the fishing around the mill. http://www.lenwadebridgeinn.co.uk/ is the website for the Bridge lakes. You can stay over in their B&B and do night fishing. Bivis only allowed for season ticket holders. There is gossip of infection in the Common Lakes. Quote
vickyh17 Posted September 7, 2008 Report Posted September 7, 2008 33lb mirror carp caught in Bridge Lakes at Lenwade. 5 decent sized ones were caught over two days from their big lake. Quote
blank Posted September 10, 2008 Report Posted September 10, 2008 no infection on the common lakes Quote
robbie_does Posted September 10, 2008 Report Posted September 10, 2008 no infection on the common lakes It is only on the newly stocked lake. i think it's the one that belongs to taswood in lenwade. there is no problem with the bridge lake directly behind the pub either Quote
eclectic Posted September 11, 2008 Report Posted September 11, 2008 If you go about a 1000 yard up from the pub. Theres a turning on the right just after the Chippy if my memory serves me. Theres atleast 2 lakes there. They may have built a new one. Quote

Theres atleast 2 lakes there. They may have built a new one. I am fairly sure they haven't. there are three lakes down the road beside the chipshop. they are collectively known as the common or charity lakes, because the profit made from sales of tickets goes toward helping the elderly in lenwade toward the cost of heating etc. There is also a lake down beside the old chapel on the main road..not sure what it's called now, but its now a syndicate lake. about £300 a year i think, with a head of around 30 decent fish. and then of course you have the old railway lakes which used to be run by london anglers. my information suggests it is one of these lakes that has lost lots of fish to the virus.

baitmaster Posted September 14, 2008 Report Posted September 14, 2008 do you mean layfields next to the norwich union lakes ?? http://www.layfieldslakes.co.uk/ kevin Quote
vickyh17 Posted September 15, 2008 Report Posted September 15, 2008 The new lake is next to Norwich Unions which they have also taken over. It is on a day ticket for the next 6 weeks then will be syndicate only. Quote
markrobbo Posted September 16, 2008 Report Posted September 16, 2008 47lb mirror been out of charity last week, babyface.same fish that shelley had. Quote
nick12345 Posted October 3, 2008 Report Posted October 3, 2008 i heard that charity/common lakes had an infectio and lost quite afew carp including some of the bigger ones not just heresay heard from a number of good sources, is it true ? The new lake mentioned used to belong to the taswood complex, however there was a guy who recently had an accident and won alot of compensation. He then bought the lakes off the taswood owners and opened a fishery for the disabled. However he then went and imported a huge number of foreign (think they were hungarian) carp which carry a virus which they are resisitant too. He killed all the english stock that were already present, and apparently the virus spread to some of the other lakes in lenwade. Quote
blank Posted October 3, 2008 Report Posted October 3, 2008 ive fished it all year and no sigh of infection on the common lakes Quote
jimshelley Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 charity lakes are fine, just lay/killfields with dead fish thankfully . the virus spread to the the lake next door"norwich union"and killed most of those fish uncle jim KIR Quote
