The
lake has proved to be a good lake for natural breeding with Roach, Rudd and
Carp all successfully breeding.
We
supplemented the Carp population with a few Common Carp and added some
Bream. The
Bream seemed to have done less well but sometimes this species do not show
for several years and then all of a sudden people are catching them.
Probably
the most interesting thing that we have found is that there are some small
Tench in the venue. None
have been added and so we believe the venue will be productive for this
fish. With this in mind we have arranged for the delivery of some
Farm-bred Tench to be introduced together with a consignment of Crucian
Cross Carp.
Our
aim is to provide a variety of species in the lake. It
is fair to say that last year during July and August the weed was a problem.
In previous years we were able to clear all swims but only managed 50% last
year. This season we have engaged a contractor to come in with a boat
which has a hydraulic arm to remove as much weed as possible. Weed is
essential but we have to accept that if you cannot properly fish the lake
then we are not providing the amenity you want.
Heritage
Lake is an important venue for us. We have noticed that quite a few
families enjoy the lake and so what we are aiming for is for the venue to
develop in to a fishery where everyone can catch something but with the
occasional big fish not out of the question.
Heritage
Lake is a freehold acquisition purchased by CFPAS at the end of
1998. A peaceful venue set in the heart of the Cottenham Fen. The site
is approximately 5 acres and the Lake itself around 3 acres.
The Lake was a former gravel workings and it’s depth varies
considerably from a
few inches to 5 ft.
Car
Parking is available on Site.
Fish
stocks are predominantly Rudd, Roach, Carp, Bream and Tench. Best
match catch is 37 lb.
Best
Carp of the Season is 22lb, sweetcorn tends to sort out the bigger Rudd.
How
to get there...
