    Love bitterwell Lake and the New keeper Paul is a top bloke and very passionate about the lake. The work he has done already is great let alone the work he has planned.. Keep it up mate!

    Amazing! I'm completely new to fishing and is brilliant if you want you want to start out. The new owner Paul Isaacs is an absolutely amazing coach and has taught me LOADS in just two sessions. I've caught 4 carp already! The new team are putting in loads of work and effort to tidy the place up, there's always some improvement going on whenever I go and there is a real sense of pride and community. All in all AMAZING! What are you waiting for!

    One of the best lakes I have fished for quite some time. Although the lake seems like it doesn't have any features, it is very well stocked and has Reed beds all along the margins. The pegs are all very well maintained and the car park is very close, so you don't have to trek with all your gear. On top of all that, the owner is super helpful and friendly. He takes his time to speak to each person on their peg. He is very knowledgeable and gave us lots of pointers and tips. Caught lots of very nice carp and my pb of 14lb. Will definitely be going again.

    Great local fishing lake especially for carp. Its privately and independently owned and the prices are more than reasonable. Get a spot early if you want get the best place, it can get quite full on a nice afternoon.

    I've been going to this lake for years. Great place for a day's fishing. Paul takes great care of the fishery, maintaining the swims and the health of the fish. He is always very friendly and really knowledgeable. He's always on hand to give you a few tips. There are regular competitions throughout the year and he really supports young anglers who are interested in starting the sport.

  • 2/5 John N. 4 years ago on Google
    Lake still nice. New owner constantly walking around the lake and wanting to talk. I went there for peaceful fishing but instead got chatty owner who also had lawnmower and chainsaw going on which could have been done when the grounds were closed ? Not a very good day all round
