Robert Griffin has been fishing from the Cottage swim and has so far landed 6 Carp including a good looking Mirror of 28lb, pictured below, and a Fully Scaled Mirror of 20-08. Robert has been ‘trumped’ …

He got off to a fast start by having a 25lb Mirror and has today (Wednesday) followed this up by becoming the 95th member of the Cherry Lake 30+ club. We are getting increasingly excited ( I know this sounds a little sad and clearly reflects my age!) by the countdown to achieving the 100th member …

I though I was going to base this weekend’s update on Richard Mascall’s exploits in Kingfisher Lodge on Cherry Springs where he has caught 18 Carp already this weekend including two 20′s. Given he has just been trumped by the capture below, and I have not got his photos yet, …
I though I was going to base this weekend’s update on Richard Mascall’s exploits in Kingfisher Lodge on Cherry Springs where he has caught 18 Carp already this weekend including two 20′s. Given he has just been trumped by the capture below, and I have not got his photos yet, I will save his story until tomorrow.

The Carp have had another go at spawning during Sunday and Monday on both Cherry Lake and Cherry Springs. Just as in May, no sooner had they got going then the weather changed and all activity has since stopped. Indeed since yesterday the Carp have got back on the feed. …
The Carp have had another go at spawning during Sunday and Monday on both Cherry Lake and Cherry Springs. Just as in May, no sooner had they got going then the weather changed and all activity has since stopped. Indeed since yesterday the Carp have got back on the feed. I think we are now in the position where most of the Carp have spawned, but a few females…especially the bigger ones on Cherry Lake…have …

As Cherry Lake has been the focus of my recent updates I thought I would focus this time on Cherry Mere. Cherry Lake has been fishing steadily with all anglers catching with the biggest to Brian Hamilton in Osprey Lodge, a 28-06 Mirror (pictured below) and a 25lb Common to Vince Rolfe in Heron Lodge. The bigger Carp are, I think, sulking and keeping themselves out of the way whilst they wait for the right …

A steamy weekend at Cherry Lakes with the Carp very much in evidence as they have cruised round each of the lakes. I have lost count of the number of backs and dorsal fins out of the water. Sometimes I think this is the Carp equivalent of ‘the finger!’. Peter …
A steamy weekend at Cherry Lakes with the Carp very much in evidence as they have cruised round each of the lakes. I have lost count of the number of backs and dorsal fins out of the water. Sometimes I think this is the Carp equivalent of ‘the finger!’. Peter Jones from The Tackle Box has been top rod with 4 this weekend with a 22 and 23lb being the biggest. Good going given the …
