Angling Lines have a brand new lake for 2012 – Blue Lake.
It’s around 15 acres, roughly triangular in shape with very natural swims cut into the tree line. The lake gets its name because the water is crystal clear with a really noticeable blue tinge. The original stock was unknown but the first test anglers who fished it in July ’11 had encouraging results, taking good numbers of carp to high 20’s.
But that wasn’t sufficient for the owner, Sebastien Vasseur, a well respected fish farmer, and he’s just completed a massive re-stocking. 272 pristine carp have been added between November & January, including;
- 7 x 40’s
- 113 x 30’s
- 152 x 20’s.
- plus a handful of large grass carp to mid 30’s.
You can see videos of all the stockings by clicking here.
Adding the two stockings to test angler estimates of original stock, we estimate that Blue Lake now has between 350 and 400 carp, with a huge head of 30’s and at least 7 carp in the 40’s.
Here’s a short video of a 49.02 mirror carp being stocked on 26th Jan ’12;
