    Thanks for the replies lads.According to their website they are open all year round so I will most likely give it a lash.

    Is it C&R or is there a bag limit do you remember? The website doesnt say as far as I can see although there is a photo of people with fish.

    I think you can keep them alright coz I remember him saying he had a club there for the day and they had loads of fish but it might have changed since I do t know
