Latest news about the Lake & the Club The Grove, Cheshire Home Unfortunately the club has been given notice by the Leonard Cheshire Foundation to the termination of the lease on the lake at The Grove, East Carleton. This is beyond our control and is very disappointing. Fishing will have to cease on the lake by January 18th 2010. We will endeavour to keep club members informed by letter on any change to this or any other changes to the club and it's waters. Dates for your Diary - 2009/10 season Main work party dates Ketteringham Hall Lake - TBA Remember it doesn't have to be an official work party to do any maintenance on the lake. If you have a spare hour or two any time then any clearing of weed or swims would be much appreciated by the committee. We hope to publish a Quarterly or Half Yearly news letter, but can only do this with the input of Club members. If you have any articles or photos that you wish to see in a news letter, please can you forward them to one of the committee members or email them via the link on the contacts page. Catch of the month / Hall of Fame For the 2009/10 season we would like to try and get a list together of all the lake record fish species. So if you catch a large fish which you think deserves to be put in the "Hall of Fame" , no matter what species it is, then photograph it, weigh it & if possible, get a witness to verify your claim. Then send a picture to the webmaster and we can put it on the site. Good luck and enjoy your fishing. 7/7/09 Well, as many members have tried it out, the Grove at East Carleton seems to be a big success. A huge head of Roach and Rudd being caught on every conceivable bait possible, all are a decent size too probably averaging out 8oz plus a fish. Some other species have also been on the bank too, a few Common & Mirror Carp,Crucian Carp,Tench and Bream, with the odd Perch being thrown in for good measure. Please try and photograph all decent catches and send them through along with any reports, to the website. We can only update if we have your information to update with. Remember, this is a new venue to the club and we want to keep a good working relationship with the Cheshire Home, so please respect the area. Park in the Anglers car park, be courteous to all the residents & employees if approached and please take ALL your litter home. Now onto Ketteringham Hall lake. We've recently had our second work party clearing the weed, once again thank you to the familiar faces that turned up and especially Shaun for the use of his boat, without which we would really struggle with weed clearance. The lake is beginning to look good with a lot of surprises being dragged out of the weed. The Crucian Carp seem to be breeding along with the Tench and also some very small & perfectly formed Pike have been pulled out in the weed It's going to be a while until the entire lake is clear, but without the members turning up it's going to take a lot longer.Remember it doesn't have to be an official work party for you to help out, A few spare hours will help. Anyway, those of you who have been down fishing the Hall lake, (Yes there are fishable swims now), have been hauling in some good catches of Tench, many of which are around the 4 to 5lb mark, and there have been a few sightings of some smaller Carp in the Lake too. So, get that tackle out , get down to the lake side and enjoy your fishing Tight lines everyone
