Yes although you may find that you need to take them from the stock lake.
The mats are for hire and can be booked in advanced if you want to be certain.

Me and Mark are off to DL2 in 2 weeks! Can't believe we've come out last again, 17-18th! We came out last in the draw on DL1 last year! I'm sure it will be fine but to come out last for 2 years in a row! Bit disappointed we've not got much of a choice again, but I did come out first on DL3 3 years ago and caught my first 50! Fingers crossed!

Bonjour I was out on Lake 2 the other week, let's start on Lake 1 was only around 6 people on Lake 1 is a little weed on the bar and round some of the swims had a walk around the bailiffs was doing loads of work cutting back all the swims an taking out all the dead wood, as for swim you want don't worry about it find out what it's fishing like on the day no to days are the same fish move about people seam to forget this, as for rigs use what you know works for you, me I like to use pva bags as I know my rig will always spot on, wafters are working week in week out so that kind of rig is worth starting of with an zigs will catch you fish, DONT GO MAD WITH LOADS OF BAIT, fish for a take not a hit you will build a hit not make one happen, had some right idiots next to me Monday morning on Lake 2 with 50 k each of crap bait moved in next to me I had had 6 fish buy Monday morning, ****s moved in an out go's the spom told them fish for a take NO SPOD SPOD SPOD, NO MORE FISH FOR ME killed it, idiots, one idiot stuck out 20k on the first day, again no fish of the bait, he ended up fishing away from it for a fish at a time, lison to the bailiffs they see what's going on week in week out, if the carp are getting there heads down you will be OK to give it to them. But never go with that mind set, I went with some friends 2 of them never fished dream lakes before both had 40s up to 48 my mate had 12 carp out 3 40s it was a hard week made hard buy idiots chucking in loads of bait that the carp didn't want to eat that week, my friend used only 1 k a day we was using sticky baits manilla, a good bait in my eyes and one that the carp can easily digest, when there not wanting loads, think about what swim your in on the day the fish move about so don't panic if you still had no fish buy Monday night, sharp hooks good bait an safe strong rigs will catch you carp, an that's it in a nut shell, anything you would like to ask more than happy to help have a good one...

Yeah we really struggled as we ended up in Herbies Hole and Deer Dip. There really wasn't much room to go anywhere else as we were last in the draw! The majority of the fish were up the other arm up to the Snags although some fish did get caught from Sunsets and the pads. We both caught fish an hour after arriving and thought, here we go but the fish buggered off, you could here the alarms going all night across the spit! On the last night the two of us both squeezed into kingfishers and shared three rods as some guys left early. I had 2 and my mate had 1 and lost a good fish in the moon light! You know what we still had a laugh and enjoyed the week even if the fish didn't play ball. That's fishing isn't it. Just spent a few hours today re spooling my reels and getting my kit sorted ready to go in two weeks, can't Freakin wait!!

Yes mate hopefully going to do our 4th DL video this year but Mark says only if I stop taking the piss. He didn't know I was going to put pics of him on the tree in his swim every morning! Still it was funny seeing his face the first time he saw the video! The wife said "it wasn't much of a fishing video last year was it because you didn't catch many fish" so this year we're going to show her!! I do f••kin hope so, Haa ha!
