All signs of spawning activity have disappeared with the thunderstorms of the weekend although the water remains warm. My best guess is that the Carp have finished spawning on Cherry Pool and Mere, whilst there are still some Carp yet to spawn on Cherry Lake and Springs. Time will tell. …
All signs of spawning activity have disappeared with the thunderstorms of the weekend although the water remains warm. My best guess is that the Carp have finished spawning on Cherry Pool and Mere, whilst there are still some Carp yet to spawn on Cherry Lake and Springs. Time will tell. Two first time guests did very well this weekend on Cherry Lake. Aaron Fisher stayed in Grebe Lodge and was ‘top rod’ with six Carp …

The Carp have stopped spawning across Cherry Lakes following the dip in temperatures and heavy rain over-night. The Cherry Lake and Cherry Spring Carp were ‘at it’ for three days/nights off and on. A good number of Carp have clearly spawned but I am unable to be sure if they all have. If I was a betting man (‘and thank the Lord I am not sir!….), then my best guess for the Cherry Lake Carp …

John Foy and his lovely wife Denise have been visiting Cherry Lakes since 2015 and are amongst our favourite guests. I hope John does not mind me saying that I think it is remarkable that he is still fishing at his age (around 80) given he has real problems with his back and hands. Despite these ‘handicaps’ John loves his fishing and is determined not to give up and in particular his visits to Cherry …

Long term regular guests and friends David and Julie Reynolds have been visiting this week and have taken full advantage of a quiet Cherry Lake.

His biggest was a stunning 28-06 Mirror landed at 01.00 on Tuesday morning. As you can see …

We have been celebrating our 5th birthday this weekend and were delighted on Friday to share a glass of ‘Prosecco’ with both our arriving guests as well as the Cherry Lakes team pictured below. The last 5 years have gone amazingly quickly since we opened the original 4 Lodges (Heron, Osprey and Grebe on Cherry Lake and Kingfisher Lodge on Cherry Springs) in May 2013. We like to think we have been successful in creating …

Grandad Steve Shelley fished this week with his Grandson Jack Grace (age 6), as the Grace family spent four days in the Cottage. The Cottage was the place to be this weekend with plenty of Carp in evidence particularly from Wednesday onwards. In truth the Carp were more cruising than feeding. Steve and Jack did well to land three Carp to 24-08 as you can see from the photos below. I will confess to being …
