Thanks for the info. Might stick my name down anyway and wait it out!

Hello all,

Was thinking of re-joining Kingfishers in Snodland. KAPS. Was a member years ago and there were decent fish in the then. Their website doesn't work any more so lack of information on the club and what's been going on in recent years.

Can anybody shed some light?

Any members here? 🎣

I'm fishing there soon. Well hard to find out any information on Plantation lake. Would like to know the biggest fish caught. Also how many fish are in the lake?

I noticed that of all the fish pictures you see of the fish caught at Elphicks none of them are caught from Plantation. Kettle, North Prairie, Westend, Sandwich all producing fish. Plantation.... Nothing haha

Hello, thought I'd share our trip to Elphicks Prairie Lake. We caught some lovely fish. Hope you enjoy it.

I did get permission to share this just in case you're wondering.

Tight lines 🎣

I was a member of ruxley 3 years back. I gave up the membership because the weed in the summer so bad and the club do nothing about it. Although the big lake is still fishable in the summer. Used to be good for all species of fish but the carp people seemed to take over and it's nowhere as good as it used to be. But there are still big carp in there, in all of the lakes.
The big Lake was always the hardest. I know somebody who finished it for 2 years without catching a fish!

If you go through the gate onto the island you can fish The shallows, the new barge and old barge, and the big Lake that's the safest place to be. No strangers can get in there. That is the only place I would night fish.

Hello all, I've just become a member of Holmesdale Angling club. Longford lake looks a proper challenge. Has anyone fished here or are currently a member? Any news on decent catches?
How hard is the carp fishing?
How big do the carp go?
How big do the pike go?
Are there uncaught monsters in there?!

And any other tales about the venue you may have 🎣

Completely agree. Shame the lake was so busy, no opportunity to move around to find the fish. Seems like everyone has taken up fishing 🎣 Hopefully next year there will be more space on the banks when people can holiday again 🤞

Well today was another blank 😕 using Manilla and hemp. Really wanted to use maggots to top off my bait but annoyingly the shop on site had sold out. Spoke to a fella on the lake and he said he always used maggots on this particular lake. Me and my friend didn't have any luck all day casting to different spots, tweaking our Baits etc. At about 3pm the fella using the maggots shouted, hey, can you come to take a picture for me, we weighed the fish at 35 and a half pounds, a lovely mirror.

Maggots could be the key to catching winter carp. It certainly was today.
