Brief details of your catches: Although the 1st few days weather was very bad with lots of heavy downpours it did pick up and I started to catch along with a few of my fellow anglers I believe in all we had a total of 24 fish with 5 lost including 2 x 50+ fish.

What did you find were the best tactics/baits: Although this is by no means a runs water a little bit of work in finding the right spots and the patience to sit on your hands (48hrs +)the fish will come over a small amount of bait

General comments: This is a fantastic venue with a very helpful and knowledgable Ballif (Mick Hall) there is now electric in a few of the cabins pegs 3/4, 5/6 and 7/8 along with 1 of the shower blocks nr swims 3/4 , 5/6 which makes life easier the cabins are suitable for what they are designed for and the showers were clean Mick even took us for a tour of the shops available locally which saved us time trying to find them

No. of persons fishing: 7

Brief details of your catches: We caught about 25 carp in total between us . I had 55lb a 47.08 a 45lb a 41lb and a 38 2 other lower 30's and a 29lb.The 55lb was in mint condition. Only the 41lb had any damage.

What did you find were the best tactics/baits: I used big game 15lb green line with a size 4 wide gape hybrid hook and 20mm scopex boilies. I placed my baits with casting as when I used the boat I found I was spooking the fish. Recommend people to use the boat to find the spot but then to cast to increase chances.r was really hot 73 to 78 degrees nearly all week. Fish taken in the morning and evening times also if any cloud moved in. I used alot of bait but used a catapult rather than boat.

Were the facilities what you expected? Yes, very good but our chosen swim had no electric. As some of the others did - they helped us out.

Were you happy with them? yes. more than happy

Would you recommend the venue to a friend? Without a doubt. - it was recommended to me by mark May who did a lovely dance everytime I caught! :-)

Would you recommend our services to a friend? Yes. I would n't recommend anyone else. You are the best and I will always use you.

General comments: Trip of a life time. Will definitely be coming back again. The 45lb caused me a problem as it got snagged up it really fought well and took me 40 mins in the boat to get it in. Well worth the effort though :-)
