Lake 3 is one of the newer lakes (around 3 years) it is a roundish shape lake with a central island. The island is reed lined and a real fish holding feature, you need to get your bait tight to the reeds to get the best from this lake, it is also worth putting a bait about a rod length (12 foot) out from the main bank as this is a patrol route for the fish. Most methods work well on this lake, pellet being very effective during the warmer months. The depth of the lake is around 6 foot with some deeper holes going to about 7-8 foot. Like the other lakes it is worth taking some time to get to know your swim. The overall size of this lake is around 2 1/2 acres and is limited to 8 swims (2 on each side) Fishing is only permitted from the marked swims. This lake also has the advantage of no roach or bream. A very effective method for the catfish is a large bunch of maggots on a maggot clip.
