A couple of nice, warm and sunny evenings at the lake produced 4 1lbish pike for Captain Snooze and a couple for The Spoon, including a slightly bigger 2.5lb fish. the Donut managed just the 1 fish - we suspect he’s losing his touch!

For the last 3 matches we have frustratingly fished this lake with no results! In the 3-4 years fishing in Norwich we have never heard of any maintenance being undertaken to this fishery at all and are confident that there has been no Re-Stocking at this fishery. TBH we are not really prepared to pay the day ticket price for what you get. If you look at some other local lakes like “Barford Lakes” there really is no competition, as its wel maintained, the driveway can be accessed without the use of a 4×4 and its stocked VERY well.
Things that need to change before we will fish it again:
* Seriously why do fishermen need to have bite alarms when they are sitting next to their rods, are they that rubbish at fishing that they dont know when they have a bite? I thought the bait runner going and the rod bending to one side would be enough of a indication!
Will keep everyone posted with and improvements to the lake and MAY fish there again in the future (Hopefully)
