The pool is still fishing very well with winning match weights of over 20lb with very good back up weights, we have a new total weight record with over 147lb between 12 anglers.
We have also got a new carp record with 3 fish just short of 8lbs and a few around the 6.5 lb mark, the biggest carp were about 4lb when they went in and there are only 25 of them so they are really enjoying the pool.
The pleasure catches have been nothing short of brilliant,Pete boyle was amongst the fish a few weeks ago and rang me to tell me how well he was doing with numerous tench and a 4lb bream, he had estimated a bag over 100lb and then said he had to go because he had hooked a carp that was trying to drag him around the pool

My dad Doug Cooper has recently returned to fishing after a long break and has been taking the place apart with 2 sessions in the last 2 weeks that have been well over the magical ton on both ocassions he has had over 30 Tench with an average size of 3lbs, not to mention all the other fish, chub to 3.5 lb and carp to over 6lb,bream etc.
He has been fishing since he was a lad and says its the best fishing he's ever known, and to think he didn't believe me when I said how good the fishing was, needless to say he does now
