THE BLUE LAKE NORTHFLEET KENT

[tsd]

HAS ANYONE FISHED THIS LAKE. ANY TIPS , HELP . ?

[Guest hairymary123]

This takes me back a few years. I use to be a member of Blue Circle.

 

The lakes we had were Snodland, Stone Castle, Crossways and the lake you speak of.

 

I never fished it but was warned only fish it mob handed because pikeys can be a problem. Apparently the lake has motorbikes and burnt out cars in it so be aware. I was also told it had some decent carp in there along with some huge shoals of bream. Personally I always like the lake at Snodland despite its' difficulty.

 

Where else have you fished around that region mate?

i belong to DDAPS SO FISH ALL THEIR WATERS. MEMBER OF NORTHFLEET ANGLING WHICH NOW RUNS BLUE LAKE. THIS HAS RECENTLY BEEN REOPENED BY THEM & IS NOW GATED & PADLOCKED. MEMBERS ONLY HAVE KEYS. A 44LB MIRROR CAME OUT THIS YEAR. STONE CASTLE IS NOW CLOSED . I ALSO FISH THE INN ON THE LAKE WHICH IS ANOTHER NORTHFLEET LAKE.

[Guest hairymary123]

DDAPS is an OK club but its smallish waters do get packed.

Are they pukka fish in there?

[Guest hairymary123]

I had a walk round Brooklands today, which is another cracking lake ruined by pikeys.

[chrispayne]

It's a lovely lake, just have to fish in a group. I spent a night on their last spring, didn't realise how many carp there are in there!

What do you reckon? 200 carp in 15 acres?

[chrispayne]

I couldn't put a number on it, they were getting reading for spawning and there were fish everywhere, kept me awake all night splashing in the reeds in front of me (was fishing the Reedy swim)

Whenever I walk round that lake, I do feel tempted to give it a bash, but safety is paramount of me.

 

Are you still on Ruxley mate?

[chrispayne]

Not had a ticket this year fella, but still use their forum. I keep thinking about getting a ticket back, but It's hard to justify putting in enough time on there.

[Guest hairymary123]

I'm on the look out for a new water in our area, but can't put my finger on one.

[chrispayne]

Cemex Sutton lake 3, get a winter ticket now as it is going syndicate next year, and tickets will be offered to excising memebers first. I'm also on the look out for a new water myself as I'm never going to better this season on Sutton and only have a handful left in there to catch.

I remember seing a few of your early season fish, there were some crackers mate. What have your stats been?

 

I think Chilham Mill is calling for me, perhaps not this season, but almost certainly the next. I am bored of fishing 2-5 acre lakes with only a handful of 20s present.

[chrispayne]

34c, 30m, 35c, 23c, 25c, 23c, 30c, 25m, 39m, 21c, 39m, 34m, 27m, 33m, 25m. That was just between June and September, haven't fished since really, although should be getting the rods out tomorow for social.

[chrispayne]

i've got mates who have fished Chillham a lot in the past, gets rammed down there.

[Guest hairymary123]

I would have to say you sussed out Sutton. I think Slutton would be a more appropriate name, given the amount the fish have put it out there for you.

 

I can imagine it does get rammed, but there's 25 acres to play with.

[chrispayne]

If you check my facebook out the pictures are on there, funny enough some of us call it sLutton, but Cemex don't like that.

 

Should have a bit of room on 25acre water, having never been there I can't comment only pass on what I've been told.

 

Where have you been wetting your lines this year?

[Guest hairymary123]

I'm still on the Paddock Wood ticket, and have done a campaign down on the speci at the bottom of the hill. I have had them up to 21lb 8oz, but need a change if I'm going to topple my PB.

 

I have been down to Ringwood now and then, to fish Somerley, but it's too far to fish regularly, regardless of how much I love the area and water.

[chrispayne]

Depends what you want from ya fishing, but Sutton lake 3 is a puka local lake, and getting better all the time. I struggled on it, and would love to have another go, maybe I will if I stay down this way.
