I would be absolutely amazed if this wasn't a really well run fishery with good quality fish, RH fisheries have a very good reputation for this type of fishing, good fish and plenty of them. They are the gold standard for day ticket, bookable session fishing.
Not my type of fishing at all but I can appreciate that many people do want these types of venues.
My issue with this particular fishery is its location, the Midlands, especially the west Midlands. There really aren't many "ordinary" fisheries where carp anglers can join and have a campaign on and to loose the mere was a blow to the many people fishing it through its previous leasee a local club. So while I wish Rob Hales all the best with his venture next time buy/build a fishery down south, up north or just about anywhere but the west Midlands.

That's exactly it. And the way it all happened. Digging up roads and pegs while anglers were enjoying the last of there ticket. With no care at all.
Nothing against these type of venues but they ruined an already fantastic venue. As for the fish just not for me at all. I'd hang up the rods instead.

Probably more likely RH was happy to honour the existing members season after he had taken over the lease.

You will get a lot of negative information on here mostly by people who have never stepped foot on any of his waters. One thing is for certain I can guarantee it will be a very well run fishery. I will say one thing RH has some of the most beautiful waters I have seen. The sitch is truly an amazing place to spend time and Acton is absolutely beautiful, Weston park is also a lovely place. You certainly won't turn up to find rubbish all over your swim the lakes are immaculate. I haven't personally been to the mere but I would happily fish it with a few mates and enjoy it for what it is.
