This lake is as the name
suggests a shallow gravel pit, ranging from 2-6 foot in depth. There
are gravel bars and shelves at approx. 2 foot deep, dropping to
6 foot deep in the occasional hole or basin, with the majority of
the lake staying at a depth of 3 foot. The Shallow Lake is a picturesque
lake with mature bank sides, two small islands, large Norfolk reed
beds and a number of large clumps of white lily pads.
This habitat all lies within 1.5 acres of spring fed water creating
perfect living conditions for some of our better specimen fish.
The Shallow Lake holds. Tench to 8lb, Carp to 27lb, Bream to 9lb,
Rudd and Roach to 1.5lb, Perch to 3.5lb and four years ago a member
produced a Pike that has not been caught since at a whopping 37.5lb.
