There are 5 different specimens of Carp in the lake, many beautifully scaled, including full Linears, as well as some stunning Commons and originals with beautiful markings.
We have continued our stocking programme by introducing in excess of 200 Carp (Mirrors and Commons) into the lake and stock pond. Our most recent new batch was in January 2009, when we introduced another 35 stunning 40's and 30's into the lake.
We rest our waters during the Winter months from November until April, so as to add nutrients, de-stress our carp and make sure they are all in superb condition for reopening at the start of the Season. Up to now the growth rate has been phenomenal. We treat our fish with the greatest respect and expect all our anglers to do the same.
The swims are accessible from all sides, we do not believe in overcrowding so we have decided not to permit more than six anglers on at any one time, in order to allow our fishermen the maximum scope and manoeuvrability. Any snags that were in the lake were removed at the last vidange in November 2007 - thus leaving the lake snag free.
There is also a 1 1/4 acre stock pond which has been excavated to a depth of 5ft-8ft in order for us to rear our own stock.
