Ray Barnes: Lodge is as good as anything you could dream of

By Ray Barnes on 14 September 2012

If you don't like Oakview you don't like life! This is our 3rd trip so obviously we enjoy it here. It has everything an angler could wish for - a stunning lake with a good head of carp in pristine condition. Martin and Shirley are superb - always on hand if you need anything. This time day fished from lodge, taking turns on the rods - left handers set up for Ray so we lost a few!

18 runs: 1 x 34lb mirror, 11 x 20's to 29lb 12oz, 1 x 16lb 8oz common, average 25lb 3oz. Lodge is as good as anything you could dream of with all the mod cons.
