I expect you mean Ripon? The lake above the campsite there?

If so, I've fished it a few times over the years. It's very moody. When I first fished it 10 / 12 years ago, there were plenty of roach and smaller stuff in there, as well as the carp.

The last few times it's seemed almost devoid of anything other than the carp, which are now bigger and fewer in numbers.

If it's the carp you are after, I've done best in the morning or evening, just catching off the surface with bread and chum mixers on nice calm and warm days.

If you are fishing for roach etc.... I suspect you might be wasting your time.
