We have just returned from Thailand (more in my next update) and were expecting to find it cold and slow at Cherry Lakes. instead we find it has been one of the warmest November’s on record. There has clearly been a lot of rain and wind judging by the lake level being up and no leaves left on the trees! All of the lakes have fished well whilst we have been away for the anglers …

Malcolm Quayle was like a ‘Cheshire Cat’ this morning with a smile beaming right across his face! Why? It was because he was telling me about his new PB Common of 26-08 as well as two other stunning 20lb+ Mirrors. He has also still got 24 hours to go! Cherry Lake has been very quiet, angler wise this week. An empty Lodge and Cottage along with a last minute cancellation due to work has meant …

I am very pleased to say that the Cherry Lake carp have at last begun to feed on anglers baits this weekend with eight Carp, including 7 over 20lb+, being landed by Sunday afternoon. The steady drop in water temperature seems to have triggered the Carp out of their ‘late summer holiday slumber’ and they are beginning to feed up for the coming winter.

Despite the obvious tough conditions of bright sunshine, very high air pressure and mist they have managed to land 6 Carp between them with son Sam beating Dad Steve 4-2. They used their obvious experience to fish very sensibly. By which I mean resting the swim during the day when all the Carp wanted to do was cruise (this no doubt …
