No take as much bait as you want I normally take 30kg in 2 separate buckets plus my 8 items of luggage just put your name and lake number on the top of the buckets plus their is no weed in lake 4 just remember don't take any banned baits as the buckets are opened when unloading the trailers to check for banned baits

booked on lake 4 on may 9th are you really only allowed to take 10kg boilies with you or do people take more with them.
also are the lakes weedy do you know

as we want to get the bait from cc moore live range is that like the cell reason we want to get this is its alot cheaper than dream lakes boilies think its £625 for a 100kg back between me and my mate

we never been france before would that be enough

thanks in advance if you can give info

When I fished Lake 3 a couple of years ago, peg 4 was the most productive swim on Lake 4. There was an aerator about half way along the bank between pegs 4 and 5 which produced most of the fish.

Sorry to be a pain and ask more questions
Been studying previous years form on DL4 and looks like being in one of the end swims is the best bet. I have got to fish in the next swim to my son as he is only 13 so was wondering which of the other swims is usually best bet , I cant see much about pegs 6, 7 which would put the end pegs 5 & 8 out of the window. Also as it is only a small lake does the wind have much effect on the carp with pegs 1 & 8 being on the southerly wind. Is the gulley still the best bet or has it been done to death.

Any help is appreciated, as want to make it a trip to remember for my son

Yes the lakes do see a lot of cell but any good quality bait will work I took the urban baits nutcracker out this October and had 11 carp out on it . They are not completely removing the cats from any of the lakes they are just trying to thining them out

Are these lakes dominated by the cell boilies?
I am going in June and if they are I will start saving now to pay the £10+ a kg!

Hi

Just be aware that they are doing a targeted removal of catfish in the lakes.

As far as I understood when I was there in sept. This year, the 130lb cat in dl4 was removed from the complex. They had been placing out nets in all lakes as far as I gathered to put cats in so that once captured they could be removed from the complex. Still a number of cats in there, but they are disappearing. Dl5 has more cats than the other lakes but also there they are removing them. I never got a full handle on the numbers removed and whether it would continue. I can understand them not wanting cats in lakes 1,2,3 to keep it focused on the carp, but don't quite see entirely why they would want to systematically remove cats from 4,5. I know a 100lb cat will most times do you over on carp gear, but in my opinion that's part of the challenge....

Anyway, hope they don't remove all of them and it's just a bit of a thinning to manage the population.

Kevin
