  I was told same as Bremes that unless you were on at the start you cant get a ticket for love nor money and they are limited to 18 pegs.

  They only fish the deep half in front of the car park as thats where all the fish have been. I also believe weed is a problem on a lot of pegs in the other half of the lake.

  Dont think so, but with it being cold the fish havent found their way through yet. Wait till summer, the shallows will be black!

  I think it was around 3000 carp but not sure as it was covered in the sports section of the Derbyshire Times a couple of weeks ago ( may even be available via weblink to newspaper )
  We tried to book a match as its local and was told no matches til June until the fish settle etc.

  Other than for commercial reasons is there any reason as to why they have stocked carp. IIRC it is a famed and fabulous bream venue ?

  three n half ton is what we have been told.
  stocked to try and combat the weed problem.they average 5lb,due to lots of pike in the res they didn’t put small carp in.

  Very clickie group ov lads that fish the opens only live round the corner me and le bosquet tried to get on they say no way, last i herd dave frith was the man to speek too, the other thing they dont like anyone going thats got something about them its the same lads winning every week.
  I know that there is plans to add more pegs once the weed totaly clears up they have also got 2 more lots ov fish to go in so britishwater ways will want to get some money back somehow.
  I know that theve closed some ov the pegs due to health and safety whats the world comin to lol lol…..

  Britishwaterways put the carp in to clear the weed problem up, hence the colour ov the water theve used it like a drayton with a view to let the carp grow and sell them on…
  
  So sit back and let me explain
  more anglers=more food=fish grow=more money back
  
  theve only lent them the carp…..
