Morning chaps,
Just become a permit member at Horseshoe, could anyone tell me where the permit holders entrance gate is?

Also is there a parking space in Winter By and how far can you drive round there?

Fished it once before but only summer bay.

Thanks in advance,

Dane

If you go onto Horseshoe website it shows you everything you need on the lake map. The members entrance is the one before the roundabout. Hope that helps

You can only drive as far as the end of the road bank, the rest is a walk. If you want to fish the top end of Winter it's sometimes better to go from the car park at the top end of the trout bank, especially with a barrow as it's flatter. From memory I think swims 39 and 40 are about equidistant from both car parks.

Nothing came out while I was there - but Saturday night was very cold. Nothing showing neither.
Zig might have been a good call - but chap in next swim wasn't catching with zigs.

At least you didn't have 3 swans stomping around outside your bivvy at 3 o'clock in the morning James!
Then the thugs kept bumping into the rods and setting the bloody bite alarms off!!!
