Not fished it for a while but Willow at Brookside use to be one of my fav venues. Think it has 22 pegs on it from memory. Dont think its changed much from the bits of info i get on how its fishing. F1s and ide to 5lb. Loads of silvers including quality skimmers. Some carp including lumps but there not in every peg. Pellet to the islands if your drawn one of them. Corn can be a good change bait if the silvers or liners are a problem. Caster up in the water, in the open water if you want a bite a chuck from the ide and other silvers. You can catch all day. Pellet or corn in the open water pegs but i would go with paste for the bigger F1s, odd bigger carp, skimmers and the massive ide to over 5lb. Its stuffed full of fish but does not get match fished very often these days. Target weight to win 50lb-60lb but 100lbs do come from Willow in open matches when there is a bit of space. The island end pegs dominate but you can win from the open water pegs. Pegs at either end of the lake dont normally get pegged as they are crap. However, peg 3 and 13 can win with lumps from down the margin trees to your left but you need to tackle up for them! Quite a fair venue if the better pegs are used (15 max). Its a beautiful looking lake to fish so you should enjoy it.
Hope that helps
