[kevinp]

hi is any one planning on fishing ringlands near norwich this year

[salokcinnodrog]

I'm not going to fish it, but I know quite a bit about the Lakes.

 

What Lake were you planning on Fishing and what do you want to know about it?

[kevinp]

hi mate planning on fishing the big lake i know barford have take it on and restoked it but dont know any thing about the place any info you can give would be great cheers mate.

tight lines

[salokcinnodrog]

The 2 biggest that were in Days Lake died last year(?), and were normally coming out at mid 30's. In fact I think that there were only 7 fish in there in Total.

 

It is very weedy, and only has about 7/8 swims. Not many features, but quite a few lily beds on the first swims to the left.

[kevinp]

hi mate barford have put a lot of carp in there from 15lb to 34lb14oz,also they have done a lot of work on the swims and they have put some more swims in plus some double swims sounds like it will be worth a look

[salokcinnodrog]

It needed it.

Litter was a major problem there and the whole Lake used to be Rat City

[kevinp]

not rat city i ad that at taswood last year,i was talking to barford this week they have been working down there since octoberhopeing to open in june

[crazycarperuk]

If barford has worked on the lake it can only be nothing short of spectacular. Those down there at barford will always have my vote of confidence, if anyone knows how to manage a lake its them guys. Thats really good to hear.

[kevinp]

hi mate dont no if its true or not but i heard barford have been kicked of as they have killed all the fish

[crazycarperuk]

Any Reason quoted?

[pezza]

The lake will not be open before 2009 mate.

The lake is owned by cemex, but the fish by Barford.

Last I heard barford needed to arrange to net the fish, not sure if it has happened yet.

 

RMC (cemex) have no plans to re stock the lake for a while.

[salokcinnodrog]

I knew it was up in the Air as NACA used to run it for CEMEX then Barford got involved. New stocks were going to be put into Days lake as some of the Older Fish died, but have not been fishing in Norfolk for a little while.

 

Be quite a Hard job to net Days Lake, and probably some of the others around the back

Ringland has now been re-opened by Cemex

Thanks for this Nick. It does not say what size the stock fish they introduced were, and i do wonder if they are simply guessing about the originals that escaped the netting, but as you said i would have thought they might be difficult to net anyway.

 

Once we can get some idea of the size of the stock, it might be worth arranging a social down there.

From memory if they are talking about Days Lake then there were only 7 Carp in the Lake anyway, until a couple of the 30's died. There is a massive Gravel Bar that goes across the Lake that probably didn't help with any nettingof the venue.

 

I did just try to visit the website to see what has happened about the other Lakes on the complex, but at the moment either my PC is playing Silly or the Interweb is playing up, "Cannot Find Server"

Did you pay your broadband bill?

 

So i guess what they are saying is that all the originals escaped the netting process...all 7 of them (it does say up to 12 originals..something fishy perhaps!)

 

I just managed to get the website up and venue, and your'e quite right it is days lake they have opened.

Check the August edition of Carpology. There is a feature on Ringland in there

Cheeky Git!

 

Direct Debit, so I'd better not forget

 

I thought it was only 7 fish in there when I lived in Norfolk, so it could be me who was wrong

 

Looking at the map they've dug out and extended the other lakes as well.

 

The bridge that is at the end of Days lake has been put into the little Lake which was separate from the others. The Car Path went between that and the (what was 2 lakes) lake on the opposite side. There used to be a small bridge separating them . You then had the 2 back lakes which are at the right of the Map. The Back lake was silting up at a rapid rate.
