Cherry Lake has become moody since last Thursday with the Carp enjoying the hot Bank holiday weekend but not playing ball! This all changed last night with six runs in about 6 hours to three different anglers. The fish were also bubbling and fizzing as well as jumping and rolling. It never seems to amaze me how quickly Carp can both switch on and off the feed. Andy Storey has been fishing with his son …

Caroline Tighe and Steven Wallis have been on a return visit to Cherry Lakes this week. They last visited us in August 2014 when they stayed in the old fishing hut (we replaced in with Egret Lodge in May 2015). Caroline on her last visit was I think the first person to successfully photograph a Kingfisher on her rods. A photograph which we have used many times since. This week they have been staying in …

Dave Bowen our fishery manager is away on a much deserved holiday (fishing of course!), which means that I am trying to cover for him. Hence I am a little late on this update. We also did not have any photos that I could use from last weekend, more of this below. First one of my periodic rants. I would say that 95%+ of our angling guests are respectful of the rules, other guests and …

Another good week across the Cherry Lakes complex as the fish respond to the ‘miserable’ summer holiday weather of the last two weeks. As promised I need to start this update with some commentary on the other lakes. Recently Paul Sparks, who normally fishes on Cherry Lake, decided to have four days on Cherry Pool in Egret Lodge because he said ‘he wanted to get his rod bent’! Well he did big time! He caught …

They have split their time fishing Cherry Lake, Cherry Mere or Cherry Springs.

He started off having a weekend in Kingfisher Lodge on Cherry Springs where he landed 11 Carp to 15lb before moving into Grebe Lodge on Cherry Lake. I think his thinking was to hopefully get his rod bent (which he clearly did) before moving onto Cherry …
