10 acre gravel pit in Coleshill, Warwickshire. Used to be owned by Powergen (might still be) and now has a carp syndicate on it. Stunning lake which held/holds some real nice carp. A few of my friends and I caught most of the fish out of here a few years back but it was a struggle! I only managed a couple and lost more than I landed due to the bars and islands etc. This one had a real reputaton for those in know, and didn't give up its residents easily. The place has changed a bit now and has seen an introduction of some stock fish, which is good news for the future of the lake. A real Mids gem this place, and one that I'd love to go back and have a proper go at sometime.

Stunning linear @ 22lb, around Sept 2001 (ish).
17lb 8oz mirror, Apr 95.
Cracking little common @ 15lb, June 97. One of three I hooked in a day, but managed to lose the other two, which were both bigger - but aren't they always!
