Chris Taylor became the latest member of the Cherry Lakes 30+ club when he caught this fabulous 33-08 Mirror last week from Grebe Lodge on Cherry Lake. Chris was on his first visit to Cherry Lake and said on arrival that he was targeting a 30. Amazingly his very first take in the early hours of last Tuesday was the thirty. Disappointingly the shots taken on his I-Phone were poor and he only had one …

Paul Braddock and Andrew Wells returned to Egret Lodge on Cherry Pool this weekend on their ‘annual pilgrimage’ (or is it weekend away?). Last year they caught some cracking fish including 3lb Crucian Carp, a 20lb Common Carp and a stunning 11lb Koi carp (the last two can be seen on the Cherry Pool website page, but for convenience I have repeated the Koi below). This year they caught 32 Carp to mid-doubles as well …

As past guests know we work hard at Cherry Lakes to keep the weed at manageable levels. The Blue dye which we add to the water helps as well as makes Cherry Lake look good. Unlike the other lakes across the Cherry Lakes complex where the stocking density prevents the weed from growing, the weed does grow in Cherry Lake. We are now approaching the worst time of the year for weed. Where anglers fish …

Another late update. As I said last time I am struggling to keep up! Mind you I am not missing the rain. I had to smile at this classic British summer shot taken from within Egret Lodge on Cherry Pool. The Carp in Cherry Lake had a last go (I hope) at spawning about ten days ago. Ever since then the Carp seem to have been eating Carp eggs! A real high protein bait…..but tough …

I will confess to be struggling to keep up with my normal level of reports. For a variety of reasons I have been away from Cherry Lakes for the last two weeks. I will confess that I am really missing the place. I know from fishery manager Dave that the Carp have spawned again on Cherry Lake (and we hope this is now finished for this year) and some good fish have been coming out …

I will confess to be getting quite sick of all the rain and the up and down weather. Hot and sticky one minute and then heavy rain the next. No wonder the Caper are moody. Having said that they are also feeding when it suits them. As many experienced carp …
I will confess to be getting quite sick of all the rain and the up and down weather. Hot and sticky one minute and then heavy rain the next. No wonder the Caper are moody. Having said that they are also feeding when it suits them. As many experienced carp anglers will no doubt have noticed in the past, Carp and particularly the bigger females, can get moody and appear to go off the feed …
