but by all means, fone em and ask mate, they are pretty descent blokes who run it now.

hllo ppl, you would be very lucky to all fish the point where the bar is, normally bailiffs and mates who fish on there, so unless you know a bailiff dont think you got much hope on that one for a sosh.
plenty of other areas tho to fish around the lake for a sosh, as long as theres not more than say 3 at most 4 going as it does get busy and you will be pushed for swims.
fished farlows for years, nice lake n all that, cracking fish some of them, just a pity on some people who fish it.......if you get me drift.
well worth a look tho as they have got more security measures in place now, locked gates at night and cctv too. to be honest , have not had any problems at all myself on the theiving front, but yes, it has happened in the past, but if you walk round and see where people put their gear around their swim then its no wonder to me that things get stolen.
put everything away out of sight, literally just have rods outside door of bivvy, if using one, landing net by side of rods etc...
but you wont have any problems if you are in a group tho anyway i would of thought.

hope that helps :thumbsup_anim: :thumbsup_anim:
