Carp pool. Tench lake.
05/08/2017
Treowen, Tench Lake. If a lake deserved being called “The Carp Lake” then Treowen’s large lake should be known as “The Tench Lake”. Each year the tench fishing gets better but it’s never simple or predictable. This lake always seems to be a bit of a late starter but once it gets going, it goes … More Carp pool. Tench lake.
Big rudd from the carp pool.

Committee member Phil Robinson had a day to remember on Treowen’s carp pool yesterday, 31st July, with three big rudd, two over two pounds and one just under, caught on slow sinking bread flake. He also caught several carp but what a surprise to see rudd this size caught here.

Treowen large lake. And now a new target is set.
06/07/2017
An early spring 2017 fish just 6lb. A late August fish 2017. 5.3lbs. Look at the size of that paddle. No wonder it could pull so hard for so long. Hooked it in one swim and landed in the next. Another late August 2017 fish caught on corn during the evening. Warm and overcast … More Treowen large lake. And now a new target is set.
Treowen Tench Tails.
24/06/2017
Damage or deformation to the top of the caudal fin of tench seems to be common at Treowen. I don’t think this is caused an injury. More like a genetic imperfection that shows up in a minority of fish. Have you seen this elsewhere? An early Treowen tench April 2017 6 lbs. Is this a … More Treowen Tench Tails.

Bank Work. Unfortunately we have been unable to complete all the bank work at Upper Hadnock Road that we intended to do before the season starts tomorrow.

Treowen large lake.
13/05/2017
Treowen large lake. Update. Early indications are that stocks of rudd, roach and perch have suffered a massive hit over the last winter. The absence of and dead fish in the water rules out fish mortality due to pollution or poisoning. This leaves predation by goosander and cormorants as the most likely reason. The … More Treowen large lake.
