Many thanks to Alan & Amelia Mccarthy for these pictures of their recent trip to Shepherds Way.

All three of the carp Amelia caught from Neate’s Lake  were over 10lb and the lovely mirror was just under 4lb and was caught from the small little lake on a bunch of maggot.

Alan caught the perch at 8pm from the small lake at peg 13 on chopped lob, it weighed in a 2lb 7onces and in Alan’s opinion the best fish that he has caught at Shepherds Way.
