Here it is guys a UK MFK first!
Four lakes totalling 170 pegs in Sherwood Forest alongside the River Maun catering for all types of angler.
Easy access to most pegs by car with the maximum walk being just 80 metres.
Hot and cold drinks from the bailiffs cabin.
Breakfasts and snacks from the Farm Park Tea Room.
Toilet and washing facilities also at the Tea Room.
Open all year, 7am to dusk.
Adults 1 rod £4 2 rods £6
Under 16s 1 rod £3 2 rods £5
And the Lake we will be fishing on is
Sherwood Lake
Sherwood is our largest lake with 64 pegs on 4¾ acres. Its S shaped and reed fringed with fishing from both sides. Depths range from 3ft at peg 1 in front of the bailiffs cabin on the field side to 5½ ft. at peg 45 on the roadside. There are 14 different species in the lake including carp to 20lbs, tench to 6lbs, roach and orfe to 2lbs and bream to 4lbs. The match record is nearly 80lbs whilst there have been many pleasure nets of over 100lbs!
There are lots of islands, bars, lilies and reeds etc. except between pegs 42-66, but this is where the bream live.
The same tactics as on Cavendish work at Sherwood but the best results usually come on the pole with worm, paste or meat over a bed of carp pellets or hemp.
Regular open and club matches are run on this lake, and its the only one on which you can use your keepnet for pleasure fishing.
Ill need to know everyone who is defiantly coming by MONDAY 21st AUGUST 2006 so i can call them let them know how many is in our party and reserve our pegs so we are all together
NO CASH IS NEEDED UP FRONT FROM ANY MEMBER YOU PAY ON YOUR ARRIVAL.
MEETING TIME for all members we suggest the time between 07.00am and 08.00am anyone else who comes after that would have to ask at the bailiffs cabin as to where we are situated. I will be there early to meet and greet members.
DIRECTIONS ON HOW TO GET THERE Take the A60 out of Mansfield then join the A6075 signposted Edwinstowe.
