Pads Lake - quiet and secluded.

the small pit with big carp and pike

Situated to the right of the main car park, and accessed through a small meadow - with an alternative secure car park giving easy access to a wide choice of swims at the far end. This quiet and secluded water has lily pads, weed-beds and overhanging trees, and is home to a variety of species, with Carp up to at least 28lb, Pike to mid-doubles, alongside good quality Rudd, Tench, and Bream, with reports of the latter being landed over 8lb.

The average depth of this venue is 6ft, and the majority of the fishing is at quite close range, and so watercraft and bankside behaviour are key to success.
