As you enter into the main entrance you see the north end of the Heron lake this twelve acre gravel pit runs south in a half moon shape with a quiet bay at the end, the lake has Canadian pond weed with common reed mace beds dotted around the water.
The shallow margins slope off to between seven and twelve feet, the Lock bay and North bay areas are no more than 60m across while the middle section of the water stretches to 90m across with the south bay around 100m across we have placed the sixteen swims along the west bank only to give the members plenty of space.
With not much angling having taken place in the past the stock levels are still a mystery but over time we shall be a lot clearer as to the fish present.
We have caught  mirror carp to 35lb and common carp to 37lb already but who knows what’s swimming around as the other waters around these pits have done carp to over forty pounds in recent years, there has been 12 different thirty pound carp caught so far'
There are two car parking areas for this water one at each end.
We have stocked 296 small dinton strain mirrors and commons so far these in a couple of years will make a truly great runs water. 55 x 3-6lb dinton strain carp were stocked in November 2007.
