Second time here, just as lovely, weather could have been better, never mind trying again next year.

Cracking fish, Doug and Sue great hosts.

3rd May 2008 Mark, George and Harry

First time at Woodpecker, first time carp fishing for Harry (must be why he had the 2 big cats!).

We had a great time and Doug looked after us really well and gave us some good tips.

Liked it so much we have booked for next year already!

31st May 2008 Daren, Simon, Gerry and Lee

Unlucky with the weather but lucky with the fishing.

3 of us got 2 personal best's each, had a great time.

7th June 2008 Cheshire Ratcatchers

Only 2 nights fished. 1 half day and the rest were 12 hour sessions.

Fish spawning and cleaning off towards the end of the week made the last couple of days hard going.

Great week spent in good company.

14th June 2008 Oli and Susie Jennings

Another superb visit, weather was great and we thoroughly enjoyed the company of Doug, Sue and Family.

Fishing was hard as carp continued to spawn. Yet we still managed some cracking fish and

a personal best cat each. Looking forward to our next visit.

28th June 2008 Terry and John

I didn't think it could get any better after last year but I was wrong.

Thanks for everything Sue and Doug. Our stay has been top notch.

12th July 2008 John,Jackie,Joe, Lee, Carley, Molly and Lily Newberry

As in previous years we have all had a great time, couldn't have asked for better hosts.

Thanks Doug and Sue, Molly caught 81 roach and rudd and really enjoyed herself.

Can't wait for next years fortnight.

19th July 2008 Alan, Jan, Tony, Paula and Carys

It was a surprise to only catch one fish in daylight and high pressure kept the fish down during the day.

Doug and Sue are to be congratulated in providing a superb location to both fish and relax, truly caring hosts.

Next year already booked for us, can't wait.

2nd August 2008 Adam, James, Pete, Carter, Sue and Michelle

Personal bests for all 3 of us and new lake record cat.

16th August Tom Lambert and family

Had a lovely time. Many thanks to Doug and Sue. We've caught some top fish and

enjoyed seeing the diamond sturgeon 3 times. 56lb cat for Tommy, what a monster!!

23rd August 2008 Simply Pellets Field Testers Ron, Kath, Steve, Mouse and Eric

Total catch for 2 weeks 3685lb 11oz, new lake record mirror carp 39lb 13oz.

Fishing became hard as atmospheric pressure fell by 35 mbars in 10 hours.

Thanks Doug and Sue as always.

13th September 2008 Neil Mattingley and Christine Marks

A great weeks fishing. All people fishing had new personal bests several times over.

Lovely people, beautiful lake, big fish. Great week.

20th September 2008 Mark and Jenny

What can I say does life get any better than this? Family, Friends and Fish!

I am delighted to catch the first '40' from Woodpecker, but all of my respect goes to Doug and Sue

who have worked so hard to achieve this stunning fishery. Huge thanks to you both!

Mark and Jenny

p.s. I don't think I've ever seen Mark so excited as he was when he pulled out his '40' and then his 37lb common!

I would like to thank Doug and Sue for being fantastic hosts and for enabling me to land my first ever '30'!

27th September 2009 Jim Parkyn and Mick Joyce

Despite lack of fish we had a very enjoyable week and what we did catch was superb.

8th October 2008 Chris, Tracey, Christopher and Nathan Whiley

Thanks again for another great two weeks. Chris has done some personal bests along with Christopher's personal best.

Still great people, will miss you both next year but back in 2010. Keep up the good work with what you are doing.

All the best love Chris, Tracey, Christopher and Nathan.
