300 acres? - presume you are not talking about the Homersfield syndicate which is 35 acres.
There are 25 swims for members, 2 swims for lodge guests, and 4 or 5 swims always roped off for feeding stock and filming.I have fished it in the past but got several mates who have fished it every week for years. Its a cracking private lake (under padlock), but a minefield of rules and roped off swims recent years take away the attraction for me.
Stock wise, the owner likes to put all decent catches on fb. A few fish have passed recent years but you still got a couple of crackin mid 50 commons (young fish), a nice mid 40 mirror, and 4 or 5, 40+ commons. Good head of 30's & 20's, so its tasty. On the down side at least 50% of stock are commons up to 12Lb and its heaving with roach in the 6oz - 1.5 lb bracket, so bait presentation is tricky. Lots of big old cats lurking as well.
Getting on the syndicate in the past has been easy if you know an existing member. But I'm told this year they are cutting numbers down (75 to 40?) hence the closure until mid June and the price going from 800 to a grand.
