SPRINGFIELD LAKE
Over the last 18 years Springfield Lake has matured into a fine specimen lake
The carp have developed well with a few 20lb + and many fish in the late teens,
you can look forward to some excellent fishing in 2008, With over 150 good size
carp to fish for, there should be a few smiles around. Last year saw many 20
pounders from Springfield, since then more have been banked. Don't forget, if
you catch a big one get it weighed and let us know.
Because of Springfields specimen fish we have introduced new additional codes. They ensure we all care for the fish and enjoy seeing them develop beyond their current high teens and twenties into the future 30lb plus specimens.
As Springfield Lake is aimed more for the Carp anglers,
the following specific rules will apply:
- Minimum of 6lb Line Maximum 12lb
- Maximum 10 anglers
- No excessive baiting
- Fish from platforms only
- No cat food
- Unhooking mats to be used at all times
- No fishing without a landing net. Minimum size 30ins width
- Carp poles with minimum 16 elastic
- Barb less hooks minimum size 10, maximum size 6
