Gone Fishin’!

I am going to try one of there lakes tomorow not sure which to go for. Not after massive fish

Have you cleared it with the Milton Keynes Navy?
The carp protection fleet is awesome.
Their gunship can fire an Arlesey bomb over 300 metres and I did hear that their ground station long gun fired one right back into Arlesey Lake 15 miles away at the end of May to celebrate Richard Walker’s birthday. He invented it there to get fish out of the deep trenches which required a long cast and an aerodynamic weight to get the distance. Local hero for anglers.
Willen Lake is good, only two minutes drive off the M1 and the National Express temporary bus station isn’t far away which has a good car park, OK if the ones around Willen are clogged up, and the walk through Cambell Park to the lake is quite scenic.
The X5 Oxford-Bedford-Cambridge bus stops there as well. Signposted from the motorway exit with oblong yellow or white signs for National Express, and a snack bar available day and night.
Quite handy. Easy enough to pull into the car park at two in the morning, grab a take-out coffee and bacon butty or two and drive back to the lake with them.
Fishing is OK. Good days and bad but a quite pleasant and attractive place to be. Better on wet days which keep the watersports people and holidaymakers away. It’s bit of a resort these days for local families. Bit of a walk to the quieter spots but worth it. Some good carp in the north lake and massive pike everywhere.
Another good venue not too far away is the Tring Resevoirs. Very nice. Had some good times there. Lovely cafe, bit pricey but good food and popular for Sunday lunches. Best away from traditional meal times to avoid the waiting. The fishing is good in Startops reservoir, big bream, carp, pike, etc. The others are OK-ish.
The Anglers Pub on the bridge is good too.
