BREAKING NEWS: The brand new specimen lake is now dug and close to being full with water. The grass has taken really well with all the wet weather and reeds have been planted around the lake and in excess of 1000 trees planted; its all coming along nicely! There are a small number of permanent caravan pitches available on site, if interested please contact Chris on 07767 363545. The Stock Pond has been netted and drained with the better fish split between the existing lake and the new lake. A good 50 to 60 double figure carp between 10 and 16lb in weight have been added to the existing lake.
History of Lake
A small mill lake and house have stood on the site of the recently opened specimen day ticket carp lakes 'Old Mill Lakes' for hundreds of years. That all changed in 2006 when Chris Marler and Jo Thompson bought the 50 acre site from the local farmer with the intention of creating Lincolnshire's finest carp fishery. Plans were made and work soon started on turning the 3.7 acre irrigation reservoir on site into a specimen carp lake. The lake was stocked with 300 carp in 2007 between 6lb and 13lb in weight. Approximately 40% being commons and 60% being mirrors. Swims were then created and laid with bark chippings as well as reeds and trees being planted around the lake. The lake in located off the A46 north of Market Rasen near Usselby and is set in a rural location overlooking the Lincolnshire Wolds with stunning views.
The lake record currently stands at 34lb 10oz with at least 2 if not 3 thirties already gracing the bank this year. This could change at any moment though as the fish are big bait eaters and are piling on the weight! This year "2009" the lake is expected to hold up to 6 different 30's and at least 80 different 20's. There is also that "unknown" feeling about the water as it did contain carp before the stocking in 2007, with other reservoirs locally throwing up carp to 27lb. "New" fish are still gracing the bank with owner Chris recently banking a 25lb 12oz mirror that hadn't been out before.
Our Aim
We take pride from being a carp fishery run by carp anglers for carp anglers. We aim to offer fantastic fishing in a friendly, safe and relaxing environment with no silly rules or bait bans. Just common sense rules that allow the fish to thrive and maintain a fit and healthy condition. Our aim is to become Lincolnshire's finest carp fishery. The fish are still young and coupled with the huge amounts of good quality bait being fed to the fish it shouldn't be long before we achieve this aim.
A nice brace of twenties to venue regular Reedy (22lb 10oz) and owner Chris (23lb 4oz)
