CATCH REPORT TO 1st MAY.
 Another good week on the season ticket lake, with reported catches including a 20lb common to Kevin Goody, a 31lb common to Chris Woodgate, and a stunning 41lb mirror to Roy Mercer. A productive session for Mark Owen, with mirrors of 23.08, 27.10 and 28.08, plus a common of 26.08. Gareth  Hazledene took a common of 28.04 and mirror of 29.10, whilst Mark Bailey banked a common of 36.08, and Nigel Rogers had a common of 28.02 and mirror of 33.07. Malcolm Best continued his recent successes with mirrors of 32.04 and 34lbs.

The day ticket lake has also fished well, with Andy Buchanon taking mirrors of 23.04 and 23.07 and Jez with a 20.08 catfish. Simon Burns took a catfish of 45.04 and a mirror of 33.06, the ninth different 30 to come out of the water this year, and pal Wayne Scotney had commons of 13lbs and 22lbs. Not content with taking the top lake apart, Mark Owen did a session on the bottom water, taking a 12.10 common, 33.08 mirror, PB sturgeon of 41.00 and catfish of 43lbs and 43.08, another PB. Marks' wife Jayne landed a catfish of 45.08, a PB for her. Sorry abut the lack of photos, which continue to be slow to come in from both main lakes, but it is anticipated that we will have some to put in the next catch report. 
Wayne Scotney with common of 22lbs.
Dans Pool has produced a 40lb bag of the larger carp for Darren Rowan and a 50b bag to Jamie Parr. Dave Wicks also did a short session on this pool for a 12lb mirror and commons of 14.08 & 16lbs. This water is obviously going to be ideal for less experienced anglers to "cut their teeth on", before moving up to the main carp lakes.
Amiees Pool has produced a number of mixed bags to 50lbs.
