We are over the moon and celebrating as the big Common smashes the new lake record and breaks the forty pound barrier. The news of this new ‘Forty’ comes hard on the back of Trevor Henshaw’s 34-07 Mirror which was caught on Wednesday. This cracking Mirror was a new ‘thirty plus’ for Cherry Lakes and is the 15th different Carp out of Cherry Lake over 30lb in the last two years since we opened in …

A good week across Cherry Lakes despite having several Lodges empty.

Between them they landed 4 Carp (all above 20lb+), with the biggest going 34-07. This is the second thirty out this year and Trevor becomes the newest member of the Cherry Lakes 30+ club.

Our good friend Nathan popped down and had a great time in Grebe Lodge on Saturday night landing 5 Carp including this stunning heavily scaled Mirror of 26-04 along with a 24-02 Mirror. Nathan took advantage of the droping atmospheric pressure and overnight rain to remind us ‘how it is done’. Rather cleverly he also chose to fish with our new ‘Cherry Black’ boilie. We have been steadily feeding the lake with these boilies over …

Mike Evans was the guest of Philip Hilson in Heron Lodge this week. The guys had quite a frustrating week given the Carp were stacked up in front of them, cruising, crashing and sunbathing…….but not feeding. This changed earlier this evening when Mike landed his second Carp of the week, this stunning Ghost Mirror of 23lb. Given his previous PB was 15lb, he was delighted to land his first 20+ and was particularly delighted to …

Garry Hall enjoyed his first visit to Cherry Lake and landed three Carp from Heron Lodge this weekend including a brace of Ghost Commons. Both of these at 22-10 and 18-04 set new Personal Bests for Ghosties for Garry. I think these fish look great in the bright April sunlight which has brought out their full colours as well as making the lake very blue. Garry fished at roughly 40 yards with high visibility pop …

I am pleased to say that the anglers in all three of the Cherry Lake Lodges caught, with all reporting fish above 20lb to 23-07. Aaron …
