Margot,
Try Ratherheath Tarn nr Kendal - Carp To 18lb or Holehird Tarn nr Windermere - Carp to 16lb . Day Tickets from Local Tourist Info Centres, nearest Petrol station or Carlsons Tackle in kendal. Windermere,Ambleside and District AA controlled, see website.
Also Bigland Hall, nr Newby Bridge - Carp over 20lb. Day tickets on Bank?
Ratherheath and Holehird - fairly easy, most methods work, but no night fishing and 2 rods max. Bigland a lot harder but bigger fish.
ok
