I might be one of a few that fished the lake before leeds bought it, the lake was good mixed fishing with very little weed growth, if in places it became a problem it was removed by hand, outsiders would have loved to fish there, i remember angling times doing a feature about large still water chub and one of over five pounds been caught for them, we used to catch huge roach and perch even tho carp were there not many fished for them and the idea that one group would have had exclusive rights to fish for them would have been thought stupid and even more stupid for a club like leeds with thousands of members to be dictated to by a few that would like it to them selves, leeds were the only club in the area prepared to take a gamble and put there money where there mouth was to buy a mixed fishery for all its members, they used members money that wanted the same, that should not be forgotten, to say that catching stocked fish below ten pounds is not what you want to do just about sums things up, it would make my day and i am sure the members that provided the funds to buy the lake would be upset to read such comments. it is laughable reading those pretending to know and care about everything natural and complaining about a blue dye, are they scared it might help the lake return to what it was bought for, are they scared they might not get there usual spot because someone wanting to fish for something other than a twenty pounder got there first, knotford lagoon is a man made ex gravel workings not natural it needs managing, if years ago they had a dye that did what the dyofix man says and leeds hopes it does then i think we would have used it and would not be having this discussion nowbut dont you think you have more than enough noddy waters to go at on the leeds book? cant us carp lads have 1 good fishery?
is that too much to ask
