Not been for a few years but the crays used to be demons, even pulling my zigs down! Sounds like it may be better there now or maybe just the time of year?

Fished the Great Lake, had a tench in the night, only saw carp show just before we packed up.
Maybe lost one bait to a crayfish that was fished close in, but no issues to anything fished out in the lake.
Nice place, would definitely go back.

I think the Facebook page is pretty active, crays should have slowed off a bit by now.

The Great Lake I fished, couple of nice doubles just throwing zigs and pop-ups at them. Nice day.

Went there last spring mid week and fished the back lake, wasn't busy, windy, weedy, clear water, fish jumping around everywhere on the wind..... Loved it.

Yeah I think that's right. , I just called them front and back lakes. Back lake is the biggest at about 7ish acres so id guess that's right.

Cheers fella, is the front lake, lake 1 king fishers? Gets confusing as all I can find is people saying front lake and big lake and I’m guessing that big lake is Great Lake 7?
Think every day ticket in Norfolk’s busy at the mo, this is kinda a last resort as all the other lake I wanted to fish are all booked already

Fished it quite a bit couple of years ago. mostly the front lake, a few 30+ in there. Crays not as bad as they used to be, I just baited really heavy with hemp and tigers and had plenty plus loads of massive roach. Sand pit and John Wilsons lakes are worth a bit of effort as some nice fish in them. Big lake was always too busy for me but think its the most heavily stocked. Apparently its got real busy now.
