The first private booking of Island lake for the year was a successful trip for the five anglers involved who between them banked 11 carp between 16lb 5oz and 25lb 4oz with six over the 20lb mark including the 'Big Fully' at 24lb 10oz as a new PB for Danny. Thanks to Danny for his comprehensive feedback report .

Another hard won Island Lake fish from a 48hr session during week. Brian fished small pva bag tactics with a single grain of corn as hookbait to catch this one at 18lb which is one of the slower growers amongst our original 'stockies' going in at 6lb 8oz in December 12.

Island lake is fishing hard at the moment but a few are still coming out; Keith banked one of the big ones at 29lb 12oz during a 24hr session at the beginning of the week.

With the temperature and sunlight decreasing the water is clearing and the fishing becoming harder at the moment. That said the private group booking Island Lake at the start of this week managed to bank 12 fish up to 27lb 6oz between the five of them in 48 hours; however as is often the case with Island one angler banked six of those fish. Thanks to Jake for the report.

The end of September saw Neil bank two new Island Lake 'twenties' amongst several other doubles including one of our stockies at 18lb. The 'fully' went 20lb 2oz, and the next mirror 20lb 4oz with the last one being the stockie.

The second of the Island lake 'thirties' was out at 30lb at the end of September during one of the private bookings.

Thanks to Dan for two reports from mid September with a couple of Island Lakes most sought after fish.

In mid September Dan banked the largest of the fully's at 25lb 4oz as part of a five fish catch with four other doubles and then returned a week later to bank a new Island Lake Pb in the shape of this 29lb 4oz mirror.

After not fishing the lake for several years Glen returned last week doing two nights and banking 5 mirrors between 16lb and 27lb including these three.

James and Dan fished a 48 hour session last week after the weather broke and banked 14 fish including these two at 22lb 6oz and 24lb 4oz

Luka banked one of the known Island Lake 'twenties' at 27lb 8oz during an afternoon / evening trip yesterday. A krill pop-up fished along the reed-line producing the goods.
