nice complex, fished it back when i used to live down that way and had a few out of the "proper" lake (mallard?)

i once had the owner come steaming up to me, asking how i dare fish it again, get off or i'm calling the police, getting in a right tizz....... then he suddenly went "oh, you're not who i thought you were. sorry." and walked off :unsure: turned out someone gave my name when he chucked them off :Tongue:

turns out it happened quite a lot as you had to sign in and out.....

there is/was a question mark about the fish's origins, if you listen to the rumours - but then the same could be said for a lot of the waters which were stocked in the early 90's

there was some cracking commons in there :unsure:

fished it once the owner treated me as if it was my first days fishing,as he blasted rules at me in the shop,saying you wont get a 2nd chance with any rule,i thought wont need one, not comming back tosser, and didnt.

I fished it on a charity weekend two years ago and was impressed with their main lake. Nice looking water.

i am thinking of joining wintons this year,seems a bit expensive at first glance though. as i live minutes away it would be rude not to really.
is it a hard place? intermediate? my syndicate water has become far to easy over the last couple of years.you know your gonna catch regardless of how hard you try to change things a bit. which to me takes something out of going tbh. as its just a case of how many not if any. last year saw 200lb bags common place and i found myself thinking of ways not to catch them just to slow it down a bit.resulting in some wierd and wonderfull hook baits being used.

and since my disability (or spasticisation as joss puts it) i cannot be hauling carp in one after the other so a nice sit in brolly or bivvy with some fish in between would be nice.

anyone know wintons well enough to comment?i would appreciate your view's on the place.....

The is a charity 48 hr Carp and Catfish match being held at wintons fishery on the weekend of 25th - 27th april 08..

Usually have to be member to fish this but due to charity match this is not required as a one off....

The Common record has just been broken down there recently and that stands at 46.12lb they also have mirrors to 45lb, Catfish go to 61lb, there are 4 spaces going for this, its 100.00 to fish and includes your breakfast..

Flatliner fished this a few years ago with me and im sure he will confirm what a lovely fishery this is?

anyone interested then pm me for more details..

www.captiveangler.co.uk for full comp details its called the DT Challenge

Thanks People
