Fred Knight visited Cherry Lakes for the first time this weekend, and boy did he pick a weekend to do so! It was so cold in the wind that the ‘brass monkeys’ froze! The north wind was biting! Indeed Cherry Lake was partially frozen again on Saturday morning. Still, as he says, the Lodge is as ‘warm as toast’! Fred chose to stay in Kingfisher Lodge and has to date had two Carp, a 12lb …

The kitchen fitter starts next week which is a sure sign that we are on the home …

Fishery manager Dave is taking advantage of the absence of paying guests on Cherry Lake. Fishing from Grebe Lodge he took advantage of good conditions and a quiet Lake to land 5 Carp including these two Mirrors below of 23-08 and 22-04. Dave used Special Red tipped with a white piece of plastic corn to entice all the fish. It is interesting that it was the turn of some of the Mirror’s to feed after …

We have had a very quiet start to the new year here at Cherry Lakes. At one level this has been good news as we are very busy around the complex on various activities such as tree work and planting, as well as the ongoing construction of the House and Lodges. It is also a shame, because the Carp across both Cherry Lake and Cherry Springs have obviously got themselves into full winter mode and …

We are delighted with the article on Cherry Lakes which has just appeared in this week’s Carp Talk. Titled ‘Cherry’s on Top’, this article is based angling journalist Paul Monkman’s visit to Cherry Lake with his colleague Ben Wales back in October. From our perspective this was a dream visit, because they loved Cherry Lakes and our set up, a fact which was considerably helped by the fact that they both caught from Heron Lodge. …

It is a real shame he could not land the other fish …

The frost of the last few weeks had clearly knocked the Carp off the feed. The big winds of this week has ‘woken’ the Carp up. The water is back being coloured, the Carp are fizzing and as Luke Williams found out are back enjoying boilies again! Over the …
