This lake is pleasant looking and is set on a caravan site.
As you approach the lake you can only fish on the left hand side of the lake. (The right hand side is for the people staying on the site).
The banking is short cut grass with plenty of room behind each peg and to each side.
The lake has a huge central island to fish to and the margins are reed lined with a few overhanging trees too.
The lake has many species present such as Carp, Roach, Bream, Gudgeon, Chub and Perch. There are a high number of silver fish here so bites are regular
The lake is 1.5 acres and the fishery opens at 7am and closes at sunset. (The owner opens the gate at 7am, no earlier).


Rules state in-line method feeders only


Quotes I've found on other sites include :

"The lake is an outstanding silver fishery and is stocked with roach, bream, tench, gudgeon, crucean carp, perch and chub to over six pounds. There are a large number of carp well into double figures and some over twenty seven pounds."

"Westerly Lake is a beautiful natural looking 1.5 acre lake. It is an outstanding venue for anglers who want to catch quality silver fish as well as holding some large carp"
