Beautiful Lake
By Sheppard & Banford Family on
The lake is beautiful and the facilities are excellent! Maybe find some instructions of how to use the oven because it's very confusing to use. Apart from that, everything is wonderful!!! A very relaxing week and children enjoyed naming each fish caught. Shirley and Martin made sure we were okay with everything in the lodge and nothing was too much trouble - very good hosts.
Note from Shirley: Oops, thanks for that - the instruction manual for the new cooker has now been placed in the lodge.
Fishing Tactics: Boilie over pellet in different spots around the lake.
22 fish in total: 2 x 40s, 9 x 30s, 5 x 20s and 4 under 20lb (including a 17lb grass carp and carp from the stock pond. Also caught a 6lb pike and a tench from the stock pond.
