If you were me - honest opinions please!
As a few of you know I am in the process of building a venue, the first lake is about 2.5 acres and will have 32 pegs on it - my aim is to produce the best of the best, I am not digging a square hole and stuffing it with carp. The setting is a very peaceful countryside field well away from any road noise and flanked on two sides by mature woodland and with a non navigable canal along the other. I am putting alot of effort into making the lake look as natural as possible but at the same time it is designed to be as fair as possible with pronounced shelves and a unique system that will filter the water.
The pond sits on a heavy clay soil with bands of natural sand meaning that the water will remain coloured all year round.
The last part of the plan and possibly the hardest part for me is to decide is what to stock into the lake - obviously at the end of the day I want to attract as many anglers to come and fish as possible but I am hopeful that the quality of the setting and the peace and quite will be one major attraction - but what to stock???
