Our Carp Lake is unique in North Wales. Originally created over 30 years ago and this mature tree-lined water of around 5 acres is home to a healthy stock of carp, pike and catfish. The carp stock of over 400 fish run from 8 lb to 34lb and the pike and catfish have been caught over 27 lb. As promised two new mirrors were stocked into the Old Carp Lake weighing 32 lb 8 oz and 34 lb in January 2006. They are not big bellied fish, very broad shouldered with plenty more room to grow!!.

 

The pike range from "Jacks" to angry 25 lb+ specimens and the Catfish up to 27lb all provide consistent sport throughout the year. The lake itself has loads of features with islands, lillies, snags etc harbouring fish and almost crying out for baits to be cast to. Particle baits are banned, shelf-life and frozen boilies are available including Kevin Nash, Nutrabaits, Richworth, Dynamite, Heathrow Baits and many more. With the full range of boilie mixes, flavours etc. to choose from in the on-site Tackle Shop, there's no excuse for not catching. We allow night fishing, but numbers are restricted so that the lake is not under too much pressure. Many of the swims are large enough to take two-man bivvies, and there are six brick-built barbecues around the lake. And for the long-stay carp anglers, we have toilets and a shower on site.

 

Booking is essential - especially for night swims.
