For wits worth I fished Mayflower (also part of the Mirror Group of lakes) in May and found the Facilities set up very good and bailiffs really helpful (they pulled our van out of boggy ground). The fishing was difficult as the margins were awash tadpoles and the fish besotted with free food in a distant Margin. One of our group could cast to these shallows and had 3 fifties in a row plus back up forties. Zigging tadpole like baits in 2 Foot of water.

We last fished it in 2012, it had issues then. It looks back on form again now, so much so that a few of us are booked on again for September.

If this is the Meadow lake near Limoges, I was there couple years ago - me & my mate hired the whole lake - had a shed load of fish to low fifty. Nice quiet place, lodge a bit basic but did it's job. We baited the deep area in middle heavily with Mainline Essential Opal from day one and caught all fish from this area.

Has anybody else got any recent info on the place? Never set eyes on the place before so going in a bit blind if I'm honest!!! Not much on the net or YouTube about the lake really. Thanks in advance.

We went here a few years ago now and had a decent stamp of fish between us.
The dam wall is obviously the deepest end with the far end being pretty shallow. The fish were held up in the shallows when it was warm, but soon moved off when the weather deteriorated.
The pole in the middle was a good spot for my friends who fished near to it, and good area to get the cats from. They used fish meals and had cats to 78lb, whereas I stuck to other baits and avoided the moggies.
Overall it's a lovely quiet lake away from it all and well worth a visit.

Haven't been there for a few years... there are a few Cats in there, and few bigguns too.. I had them up to 60+.. not my thing, but interesting none the less..the place has matured nicely bankside. The hut could do with a little work, but anglers don't care too much for price of isolation on this lake..
Some nice carp in there.. 👍🏻 Rob who owns the Mirror Pool fisheries will be able to give you more info.
