Got back a week ago from DL1 and had a great trip. Caught 18 in the end including 3 40's and beat my French PB so well happy.
The food as ever was too much to handle (in a good way) and despite a fairly tough week on DL1 all the lads caught - you just had to work harder for the rewards...
I do have some tips for those thinking of heading out there.
1. Don't forget any items of end tackle and make sure you have enough to last you the week - the prices in the onsite shop are eyewatering.
2. I would say you need a minimum of 20kg of bait and if they are having it even 30kg is not excessive. You can get bait onsite but its not cheap
3. If you are joining the coach at Dover make sure you get there before the time stated in your paperwork. I suggest you get there by 9 at the very latest as the drivers always want to try to get the 10pm ferry.
4. Dont forget to take a pillow onto the coach and earplugs are also useful for the journey down unless you want to listen to the conversations of the insomniacs on the coach!

Aha, I see  - thanks for the quick response
Thankfully my Brother lives 20 minutes down the road from Bicnacre so we will aim to get there at 19:00 to 19:15 at the latest (there is no major traffic that time of the day).
My Journey starts 5pm tomorrow afternoon however. I first need to get to UK !
Bit of a stress having all the gear in UK and not being able to check things before the day I leave (got like 5 reels to spool up, batteries for alarms and torches to replace, rigs to tie, and some last minute shopping etc etc etc....), but I think (hope) I got all things planned/remembered and nothing unexpected turns up when I rummage in his garage Friday morning .

Their are 2 coaches that go out one coach leaves sighltly earlier between 19.30 & 20.00 as it heads down to the reylon car park at Dover then the other coach normally leaves just after 20.00 best to get their at 19.00 at the lastest

And one more really important thing..........
Does the Coach go from Bicnacre/Essex at 20:00 or 20:30 Friday as two documents on deamlakes web site gives two different times 
(Just for the record, all my papers are in UK so maybe it states there but just incase)

1 yes take ant powder
2 yes take insect repellent
3 no they won't get upset if you have 15kg of bollies take as much as you think your need as it works out very expensive to buy it out their
4 breakfast is at 10am & dinner is at 5pm
5 just remember not to take any banned baits ie particles , maggot , pellets as they do check buckets on arrival

Hi folks.
Well it's my turn to say I am off to dream lakes this coming Friday. Well, leaving from Norway on Thursday to be more precise. Last on the draw on dl4. Am happy with that.
Couple of quick clarifying Qs.
1 do I Need to take ant powder?
2 do I need to take insect repellant?
3 will they get upset if I have 15 kg boilies with me instead of 10 in my luggage?
4 what time is breakfast and dinner each day?
5 any last minute dos and donts?
Cheers
Kevin
