LONSDALE LAKE
An idyllic four-and-a-half acre water lined with reeds and lily beds, Lonsdale Lake is an angler's dream.
Brimming with superb quality fish, mirrors and commons to 30lbs, exceptional ghost carp to 25lbs-plus and grass carp to 20lbs, Lonsdale also offers superb tench fishing with specimens averaging 5lbs and many fish going to around the 10lbs mark.
The roach and perch fishing is excellent with perch around the 2lb mark, the biggest being recorded at 4lb 7oz. The roach fishing is recognised as some of the best in the country. Residents match weights approaching 50lb are not unusual, many fish being above the 1lb mark. Lonsdale Lake's fish stocks are managed by large Pike to 25lb.
DEER LAKE
Deer Lake is a water of two parts. The long arm by Lonsdale Lake forms part of the original clay workings and is about six feet deep throughout and surrounded by mature trees. The spur at the far end was dug in 2001 and offers a change in character, providing reeds and lilies and shelter for both fish and wildlife. This section is three feet deep at the far end, dipping gradually to five feet deep where it meets the main lake.
Totalling one-and-a-half acres, this tree-shaded mysterious pool haunted by monster tench and carp as well as quality roach, chub, perch and crucians. A haven for float anglers - but don't be surprised if you encounter the occasional gudgeon!
THE ARCHES
A lovely two-acre lake abounding with features, The Arches offers exceptional carp and tench fishing with a small number of 'Old Warhorse' commons and mirrors and some wilful fighting wild carp, some of which runs to over 20lbs.
In addition there are also some fairly heafty specimen pike to 30lbs plus outstanding roach and perch with some of the perch going to a fine 4lbs.
Now reserved exclusively for residents, a spell on The Arches is highly recommended.
