The New Barge
Lake is a 5 acre gravel pit, ranging from 2-6 foot in depth. There
are many gravel bars dotted around the lake. Five islands are within
this lake, four of them are towards the centre of the lake with
a gravel plateau between them at a depth of 2 foot. There are also
two mature Norfolk reed beds and patches of pink and white lily
pads, again this lake is also spring fed with a high water quality.
The habitat and good quality water not forgetting the scenery all
go together to make this lake not just beautiful to the eye, but
also beautiful conditions to grow on our fish, some of our carp
putting on 51b in weight every year.
The New Barge Lake holds such fish as follows. Carp to 27lb, Tench
to 61b, Bream to lOlb, Rudd and Roach to 1lb. Perch to 3.5lb and
Pike to 20lb. |
