Cold but rewarding

2019-06-07T22:43:29+01:00

Date: 22nd Jan 2019 Weather: Mild, 6c, wind 13 Lake: 7 You could say that fishing in January is challenging but any opportunity getting out onto the lake to practice casting with new rods, plus practicing general water craft is good effort in my opinion even before a potential catch. Over the festive period I treated myself to a full set of new carp rods and spent hours in the garage setting up with new line spooling three reels in anticipation of my next trip. On the 22nd I headed down to Seven Lakes for a few hours to test out [...]

Lake stocking update

2019-01-14T14:23:36+00:00

As part of our stocking program, this autumn we decided that it was the right time to invest and improve our stocking in anticipation for a fantastic 2019 of fishing. Stocking saw us introduce 70 Carp from Thames Valley Aquatics into the stock lakes of which were a progeny of their original T1 fish! Of these 70 carp we introduced a mix of Sherwoods Carp Farm (Martin Moore's fish which loosely became known as Dinton Strain), Sherwoods x True Leney cross (artificial spawning), progeny of Broad Oak fish and Sherwoods x Simmo cross (natural spawning). Now all genetic lines mixed through natural [...]

Lake 1 is cleared for fishing

2019-01-14T14:27:12+00:00

Our Predator Lake, with Pike and Perch in had become too overgrown to fish. With Pike season now upon us, and a fallen tree making the only fishable swim unusable, we engaged Nash Contract Services Limited to clear around the lake, re-opening some of the old swims. There are now 6 areas to fish from. It's a snaggy water, but keep the fishing lines tight and you'll be sure to land a catch.
