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 fifteen 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 38lb and common carp to 39lb 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 16 different thirty pound carp caught so far.
For eleven acres there are around one hundred and fifty carp swimming around which is a low stock ratio to other waters but we hope the carp will keep growing at there present rate.
There are two car parking areas for this water one at each end.
We have stocked a quantity of Dinton strain stockies into this water over the last three years with more to follow over the next two years.

Carp Stock quantities 25-30 x 7-9lb, 55-60 x 10-19lb, 45-50 x 20-29lb, 15-17 x 30-39lb+.

40 x 5-8lb Carp were added March 2010.
