Description: 5 Acre Lake is a day ticket Carp fishery located in North Cave, East Yorkshire and easily accessible from the M62 and A63. This deep clear lake was formed from an old quarry and is stocked with over 120 carp. The lake bed is predominately gravel but in summer the shallower areas of the lake take on weed which contributes to the growth and health of our fish by supplying a rich natural food source. We currently have 10 fishable pegs which are wood chipped, with 3 of them being double pegs. However we only allow a maximum of 7 anglers on at any one time so anglers will always have a choice of swims.
