Description: Highbank Lake This 6.5 acre specimen carp lake was stocked with 220 Simmo fish in 2000. Approximately 70 of these are now between 20 and 30lbs, with four different fish having been caught over the 30lb mark. The lake record is 33lb 4oz. The two larger and six smaller islands provide good holding areas for each of the 16 pegs. The average depth is five feet with shelves around all the islands and bars. Gullies and holes are also present. Most of the fish fall to good quality boilies or pellets fished anywhere, from tight to the islands, back to open water. The gates are locked on a night with CCTV in operation. Rigs will be checked on a regular basis to ensure they are both barbless and safe.
