The current works around the lake are complete and water level is normal.

Ticket numbers are still being restricted to eight at any one time.

The back bank behind the island (old pegs 22-30) will be closed all day on Sunday 6th January to allow tree works to be carried out.

Island Lake will have ongoing perimeter fencing and maintenance works for the next few weeks. It will remain open but anyone booking tickets must expect some noise and disturbance.

The maximum number of tickets available at any one time has been temporarily reduced to 8 due to weed growth.

At 20lb 11oz this is the first of the Island Lake 'stockies' to be reported as a 'twenty' after stocking at 8lb in December 12

The Theale 1 syndicate waiting list has now closed again until at least after the 2019/2020 renewals process for April 2019.

Apologies to anyone who missed out but with high demand and a limited number of places available the process was completed within 10 minutes.

The Theale 1 Syndicate waiting list will re-open for a very limited number of places around 8pm on Monday 2nd April on a first come first served basis on payment of the £30 registration fee through the online shop which will count down available places automatically.

Water levels have finally returned to normal in Island Lake.

Ian had 4 fish this weekend despite the cold spell, a common of 15lb and mirrors of 17lb, 18lb 8oz and this one at 29lb.

Water levels are still low but have come back up 4-6" over the last few weeks; hopefully this will continue.
