General Info: When there are not a lot of anglers fishing it is a beautiful quiet and tranquil place.
There are many club comps that happen here though so book before you go.
The fishery is still very healthy with plenty of juvenile Yellowfish around.
If you want to get a 10kg Barbel this is the place.
Can get very hot and there are not many trees so shade is essential.
