The lake has been updated and improved since the last newsletter with slabs being placed along the left hand bank to specify fishing pegs. This should make fishing this side of the lake more comfortable during wet weather. There has also been a disabled peg placed along this side, primarily for people with wheelchairs or disabled scooters. If a non-disabled person wants to fish this peg they should be mindful and vacate the peg if a disabled person arrives to fish.
Due to his work commitments one of our long standing Bailiffs, Mick Cullen has sadly handed in his card. We would like to thank Mick for all his help, assistance and guidance over the past years. This position has been filled by Mr Dave Finn. He will assist Alan Evans and myself, Dave Green with the maintenance and upkeep of the Lake and its rules.
Little Lakes management have recently put up two new rule boards one on each side of the lake, stating the fishing rules and regulations. It is most important that these rules and regulations are adhered to at all times. So please read these rules before you commence fishing.
Recently it has been bought to our attention that some people are fishing without LANDING NETS. It is essential that landing nets be used at all times to avoid damage to the fish and their mouths. Anyone found fishing without a LANDING NET will be asked to leave the lake.
We would like to congratulate Dave Lodge who in a recent Little Lakes contest weighed in a new Lake record, 31lbs. (Well done Dave)
In second place was Alan Curtis, who caught 20lb (Well done Alan)
During the summer we saw an increase in people enjoying the fishing on our lake. Reece Tomalin (age 8) was very proud of his catch. Reece was visiting his Grandparents during the school holiday, and enjoyed a day fishing with his Granddad. (A lovely fish Reece bigger than any our bailiffs Dave Green or Alan Evans have caught this year!)
Finally we would like to point out that whilst we hold regular fishing contests on the Lake. Little Lakes is a Holiday Park, should you wish to pleasure fish whilst a contest is in progress you are allowed to do so.
If you have any suggestions or quarries regarding the Lake please do not hesitate to contact me,
Dave Green on 01299 266161
Tight lines. Alan, Dave and Dave
