My first post for nearly a month. The radio silence has principally been down to a real slow down in the number of anglers visiting Cherry Lakes coupled with the cold weather in November. The fact that I have also been working away means that I have been missing some of the action and have lazily not produced an update. Sorry! As always at this time of the year, Cherry Lake slows right down for …

Every now and gain we have a publicity shy guest who catches a Carp which I would really like to share with you. Just recently we had one of these guests, a very good angler, who happened to have the brace of the year from Cherry Lake. Mr ‘X’ landed two fabulous Carp amongst a catch of 6 Carp. The biggest fish, a fantastic Mirror, is the biggest Carp caught from Cherry Lake this year …

For a change, not least because I have two photos to use, It is nice to be able to focus on Cherry Pool in this update. Cherry Pool is a fabulous winter water and really comes into its own during the colder months. This is partially due to the fact that Cherry Pool is by far the deepest of our four lakes. It is shaped like a steep sided ‘soup bowl’ and goes down to …

I will start this update on Cherry Mere this week. As you can see Andy Rushton and Keith Waddington had a very successful stay, despite the falling temperatures. They shared some 21 Carp between them some real beauties including a fabulous 18lb Ghost Common and a 26-08 Mirror pictured below. They used a range of baits, principally boilies and pellets, with the 26-08 Mirror coming on anchored crust about 18″ below the surface. I have …

I am delighted to confirm that our good friend Greg Harwar (who was a great help with Sunday’s stocking activity) landed just before dawn on Sunday morning the 16th different carp over the magic 30lb+ mark properly photographed in 2017. The fish came from the middle of the lake on a small boilie over crushed boilies. Typical of this time of the year, the indicators simply pulled tight and did not quickly drop back which …

As promised I have included below several of the photos of the Carp caught when Richard Mascall fished on Cherry Springs last week. I would like to thank Richard for sending these photos through so quickly as you would be surprised by how many broken ”I’ll send them through when I get home” promises that I have had! This was Richard’s, and wife Michaela’s, first visit to Cherry Lakes and they enjoyed staying in Kingfisher …

Jonathan Hoult stayed in the Cottage this week and fished with David Bousfield . When I saw him this morning he was not sure whether to be pleased with his first visit to Cherry Lake because he had caught this 28-15 Mirror carp below OR be disappointed because he lost a much bigger Carp….clearly 30+……. at the net yesterday. On balance though I think he was pleased and said he was already planning to come …

As some of you may have guessed I have been away from Cherry Lakes for a couple of weeks and hence the slow down in news updates. As always some of the bigger Carp seem to get caught when I am not here. This time was no exception. The smaller lakes across the complex have been producing very well in my absence with both plenty of carp and many over 20lb being caught. Thank you …

He also chose to use our Cherry Lakes Mixed Fruit Delight boilies fished over some pellets and sweetcorn. In …
