March 1st is the first day of meteorological Spring today and Cherry Lake does not look like it as you can see from the picture below! Given how cold the week has been with the ‘Beast from the East’, I am happy to report that all lakes are largely ice free. I am not sure why given it was minus 7C when I got home last night? The aerators have done a great job. The …

Until Gary Owens arrived for a quick stay on Cherry Pool this weekend the only thing I have been seeing around the place is ‘brass monkeys!’ The strong East wind coupled with our aerators have kept all the lakes ice free so far. Normally the aerators keep the lakes at least partially free of ice down to about minus 4C when it is calm. It will be interesting to see how they cope with this …

I mentioned in my update yesterday that a team from Trakker products attempted to photo shoot the new range of Trakker Products at Cherry Lakes last week. They were a little unlucky in that the lakes were partially frozen on their arrival followed by two days of freezing monsoon like weather. In fact the light was so bad, they are returning to finish the photo shoot later this month. Whilst they were here they did …

At this time of the year, even though it is cold, the Carp will feed if they can. The great thing about our smaller waters, is that you are never too far from the Carp. So when the Carp feed you have a chance. On the bigger Cherry Lake you have to be more precise in location as well as having your bait in the water at the right time. The smaller lakes around the …

Apologies for the radio silence throughout most of January. Judith and I decided to escape the heavy programme of upgrades and maintenance across Cherry Lakes to take an extended holiday. As many regular followers of this website know, I always try to ‘squeeze in’ a few days fishing into these trips. This year’s visit to Thailand has been no exception. The net result of my ‘extensive negotiations’ was three single day trips to Top Cats, …

Firstly……..Happy New Year to everyone. We hope 2018 is a happy healthy and successful year for you and your loved ones and that you catch some great fish. Cherry Lakes has started 2018 with a bang.

Adam Bowyer has been on his own at Cherry Lakes this weekend. The only angler to brave the cold! He is very glad he did and has proved you can catch in almost any conditions. Adam, who is a very capable angler, and has visited Cherry Lakes successfully in the winter before, favours the smaller lakes in the winter. As he says, in the winter it can be hard to find the Carp…….and on the …

My first post for nearly a month. The radio silence has principally been down to a real slow down in the number of anglers visiting Cherry Lakes coupled with the cold weather in November. The fact that I have also been working away means that I have been missing some of the action and have lazily not produced an update. Sorry! As always at this time of the year, Cherry Lake slows right down for …

Every now and gain we have a publicity shy guest who catches a Carp which I would really like to share with you.

The biggest fish, a fantastic Mirror, is the biggest Carp caught from Cherry Lake this year …
