Lakes > Woodpecker Pool
We consider this location to be idyllic. Two and a half acres set in a garden environment surrounded by trees. A small island compliments the beauty that unfolds as you first set eyes on it. All swims are large and on flat banks, plenty of features to aim for, no snags, no annoying American catfish that you hear about so often in France. Just peace, tranquillity and great fishing.
The lake itself, we think was built some thirty years ago and designed to the wishes of its past owner, an old man who adored fish and fishing. Depths go from the shallow 18 inches off the house end, perfect for summer stalking, to 12 feet a third of the way out from the dam end. The bottom is as stated, snag free with very little silt and being relatively flat over much of the area. A boat house compliments the 1950s English type appeal of this lake together with a boat should you require it.
Stocking here has been completed from home grown (Personal-best-angling) catfish 55 lbs plus in weight. Heavily stocked you shouldn't go short of a run or two from these beauties. Carp come in the shape and form of commons, mirrors and the odd leather. Again, heavily stocked you will catch anything from the odd home bred two pounder to many of the doubles, twenties or thirties present and right up to 43 pounds plus.
