not fished it for a couple of years now so the same may not true but I used to like the far half of the lake

if you look from the cafe end the left had side has a point ,this was a very hot spot fishing up against a weed bed

the very far bank was also very good with the fish coming into the margins under bushes

half way down the right hand side theres a bunch of trees fish about 6 rod lengths out

Holyfields used to be a real runs water with 25 carp a daybeingeasy but since gone quite hard after a small fish kill but fish are now a lot bigger at nearly 40lb for a couple

they used to like fruity boilies and In the winter I used to have big catches on 4 pieces of corn popped up

the relief channel has some some huge pike in it at this stretch if the carp are not having it
