Fishing Update

The lake was fishing very well during the autumn and as temperatures fell the fish became harder to tempt, only the dedicated angler could be found at the lake. The very cold spell saw most of the lake covered with a thick layer of ice. As spring approached and temperatures warmed up and more anglers appeared (some even night fishing !). These past few weeks the fishing has been excellent, the last weekend in March saw over 230lbs of fish caught during a morning session.The biggest carp reported caught during March- 17lbs (unless you know different?)

The new season for lake membership commenced 1st April and already we welcome quite a number of new members.

Kitchen Refurbishment Complete!

We have finished refurbishing the kitchen and are re-open for food starting Mother’s Day (Sunday 3rd April). Food is available all day from 10am – 10pm, so if you’ve finished a round of golf or want a bite to eat before you catch the carp of the day fishing; the club is happily to serve! Remember, we are also doing carvery’s on Sundays, so book early to avoid disappointment.

Refurbishment of the ladies toilets

You may have noticed that the ladies toilets are looking a bit ‘used’. Well we are now refurbishing them and are hoping to have them complete by Tuesday 15th March.

June & July Fishing

The lake has continued to provide excellent fishing during June and July.

Many double figure carp are being caught, also some good skimmers, bream and some strong tench. Some work has been carried out on the few pegs that were not so accessible, meaning that all 31 pegs are now in use. It has been good to see a good number of new members fishing the lake this season.

Once the golf driving range is completed it is hoped to start design and survey work on Lake no.2 !

Fishing April & May 2010

April and the start of May has seen some excellent fishing at the White Horse Country Park lake Wiltshire. A days fishing for one regular lake member has meant catches of over 100lbs each visit. There are some very good specimens of carp, perch, bream and tench being caught. The largest carp caught since beginning of April – 24lbs.

Even if you can’t tempt the fish, the setting is good and there is lots of wildlife around the lake. Have you seen the woodpecker or glimpsed at the kingfisher?
