About the water

Trent View Carp Fishery is a 28-acre mature gravel pit in the village of Hoveringham. The website gives its address as Gonalston Lane, Lowdham, Nottingham. Its carp stock includes mirror carp, with the lake record stated as 45lb 8oz. The site also reports five other fish over 40lb, 110 fish over 30lb and more than 1,200 over 20lb. Every swim is accessible by car, with parking behind or close to the fishing position. Double swims can be booked in advance for anglers who want to fish together; other swims are selected on arrival. Anglers must book and pay before coming to the lake. Facilities include a toilet block with hot showers and an on-site tackle shop selling end tackle and Trent View pellets. A bookable log cabin has a wood-burner and decking over the lake. The cabin costs £120 for two anglers per 24 hours, with electricity supplied through a £1 coin meter and logs available from the bailiff. The lake has an otter fence, CCTV and main gates that are locked overnight. Nets, mats and slings must be dipped in the tanks provided on arrival. The fishery also describes an ongoing supplementary pellet-feeding programme, with carp photographed and dye-marked to help monitor growth and identification.
