Windmill lakes catfish lake is 4 acre lake with 200 cats up to 120lbs and around 400 carp to low 30s. The lake is available for exclusive hire for up to 4 anglers. The is a cabin a short distance from the lake with 3 beds for anglers wanting a bit more comfort.

The lake is long in shape with a long island in the centre of the lake. There are no designated swims and the banks are natural with plenty of grassy bank side areas for setting up and pitching your bivvy. The only area which you are not allowed to fish from is the dam wall.

The lake can comfortably accommodate 4 anglers each with a 3 rod set up.

Like Windmill carp lake, it was dug in the 1970s and is stream fed. The deepest end of the lake is around 6 feet at the dam end, slowly shallowing up to around 2 feet at the opposite end.

The lake bed consists mostly of clay. There is a rowing boat available on site to identify features and drop rigs.

For larger group there is a second 4 acre lake on the same site. The lake holds a good head of carp to 60lbs – click here to view the lake. Both lakes can be booked for a total price of £1700. Please send an enquiry if you would like to book both lakes.

The lake owners supply a range of baits including particles, pellets, pop-ups etc.
