Evening,

I've just managed to get a new winter ticket starting 1st Nov, (I've never seen the lake) But it's about 8 acres with about 100 carp present to upper 40, quite a few 30's but I know little about it. It's a irrigation farm res but even with the levels being lower than usual it's nearly 40ft deep in the middle (quite weedy in places).

I've never fished a lake this deep and zigs are banned... I guess first of all I will go and try and spend some time with the marker but I'm sure I'll end up fishing the margins as I've never fished a lake anywhere near this deep before. I want to try and fish it as much as possible but it gets too cold and shuts up shop for the winter.

Any advice for fishing a lake this deep?

I'm hoping if all goes well I'll get offered a ticket next April.

Cheers, Barry🙏
