Paradise Fishing lake.

We have a well stocked lake of hard fighting(Common,Mirror,Grass, Crucians and Ghost Carp) plus a wide range of other species.

Tench,Roach,Rudd,Bream and Perch.

Sweetcorn,Meat, Bread,Boilies,Worms, Maggot and Castor always fish well.All meats to be used in moderation please

In Summer

The lake offers a wide range of angling to suit everyone, from the experienced angler who can set their sights on one of the carp to 20lb, to beginners  who have just started fishing.The lake has lots of reeds,rushes, and lily pads for carp to hide-amongst. So why not go in Search of Gold for the Crucian Carp,use a 0.09 mainline with a .3g fine bristle pole float and a size 18 barbless wide gape hook,use a small bait sweetcorn/chopped worm/ pellet/ or maggot fished just touching bottom or 1/2 inch over depth changing the depth can make all the differance get your presentation right good luck.

In Winter

After dawn and before Dusk try for the Perch with it's colours and markings it can easily camouflages itself into it's surroundings, weed beds, sunken branches and tree roots. These colours and markings are less distinguishable in older specimens who tend to favour deep water and solitude.

There are various ways of catching Perch.A well place float fished or legered lob worm or maggot will always tempt the fish especially if fished close to an obstacle or an overhanging tree,Allow a long tail between the weight and the hook too, as the slightest hint of drag will have it ejected very smartly a big lob worm will often tempt the older and bigger Perch.

Hi all.

The lake has thawed sufficiently to allow fishing to résumé, but the water temperature is low.

In winter time fish are normally very tightly shoaled, making location critical. You will need to do your homework before fishing by either walking the banks or asking Phil. There can be some areas virtually devoid of any fish life and you will need to avoid these.

A small maggot feeder is a good bet but enlarge the holes to get the feed out as quickly as possible. A short hook link of fine line to a small hook works well. I use Preston Innovations Reflo Powerline with good results. At 0.15 mm diameter this line still has a breaking strain of 5lb 14oz or at 0.13 mm diameter a breaking strain of 41b 12oz, which is very good compared to more conventional lines. Use a fairly soft tip as bites can be rather gentle and difficult to detect.

Float anglers try using sensitive pole rigs. Use these with a running line to get the sensitivity of the pole rig but with the advantages of running gear when playing Fish. Fluidised bread with a small piece of punched bread on the hook can work remarkably well for Roach/Rudd and Skimmer Bream.

It is surprising to see how little feed top match anglers use at this time of the year. Even large bags of good fish can be taken using very little feed. Many anglers ruin their chances by overfeeding. (Baits for winter at Paradice..Pinkies ..Casters..Maggot..Hemp). Use plenty of maggots and try to catch one of them big Perch we have in our lake.

Good luck for 2011

Hi all.
With temperatures set to rise further and with a good spell of prolonged weather forecast over the next week or so, expect to see the fishing improve further, try to catch some of our genuine Crucian carp! These fish can be found in and around the margins with specimens to 4lb being taken reed beds and lilies or overhanging foliage being good places to fish,Crucians are delicate feeders, and require fine, balanced tackle and good presentation for the best results. Pole tactics and light float tackle are favourite, paste and soft pellets are great hook baits. Corn, caster and chopped worm are also productive. Carefully dotted down floats will help register the shyest of bites which often lead to hooked fish. Loose feed just a few free offerings.
Good luck.
