LANGHOLME LAKE
Lee Plant with mirror at 37lb
   
  The Society holds a long-term lease with a large mineral company. At the end of the specified ten year period there is an automatic renewal clause.

Stocks of fish have been provided from several sources including Horseshoe Lake,  Farriers, Woldview and Shotgate.

The lake itself is some 17.5 acres or so in size and is a rapidly maturing sandpit. It is several years old and had never been an angling venue until the Carp Society took it over in June 2001.

Excavation of sand finished around 1992/3 leaving the lake in its present form, however there have been sand pits on this site for the past sixty years or so. The lake is typical of many in the area, gin clear, weedy water with an abundance of natural food, the water quality being first class for holding and growing fish. Bordering the lake is Langholme Wood Nature Reserve to the South. To the North there is the Doncaster to Gainsborough Rail link and the Warping Drain, a seldom-fished land drain holding good stocks of Pike, Tench and Bream.


 

November 2010 Restocking

Langholme has proved to be a water capable of growing on some fine fish. We now have a new long term lease, so we have introduced 50 C4s from VS fisheries, with average weight of slightly above 10lb to further enhance the stock.
