Anybody fished this venue since it has been took over or even in its previous name. Looks an interesting lake with some nice looking fish. Any feedback appreciated 👍

Fished it in May 23 absolutely loved it had 4 fish to 53lb, saw a new lake record caught by a 1st timer to France his 1st fish. Crystal clear water but solid weed approx 2ft below surface. Large clear area one end but only odd clear spots other end. Fish were immaculate and jet black. Complex facilities were spot on and Max is a top bloke, will definitely be going back

Stunning looking fish in here. Not sure how big they go to but just to catch one of those fish would be fantastic.

What's the weed situation like? Looks quite heavy in places. Do they blue dye it at all?

Been looking at this Venue, reading the rules it says Bait Boats are allowed...

I'm not a Bait Boat kind of guy so was wondering if the lake is one of those that are “dominated” by anglers using them?

I get it's weedy but not worried by that.

Fished the Aquarium last week - the fishing was hard going (typical of the time of year) but would love to go back one day. Great venue and the food served up by Tom was great. We had everything from homemade pizzas, Sunday roast, fajitas and curry.

I didn't use a bait boat as it's not really my cup of tea, especially a lake of that size. The weed is dense in one half of the lake although the fish naturally spent a lot of time in amongst it. It is worth using Google Earth to uncover the smaller holes in the weed that don't receive as much angling pressure.

Sorry I know this doesn't help the OP but I think calling this venue Aquarium is a mistake.
It conjures up in my mind that its artificial, man made.

Think its because the water is so clear.
