Stocked with carp up to 22lbs, green and golden tench to 6lbs, bream to 11lbs, crucian carp, ghost carp, carp/koi, roach, large perch, golden orfe and golden rudd, House Lake is Milton Pool's general coarse fish water and is a good starting point for newcomers to the fishery.
Covering about one-and-a-half acres, it offers 11 well-spaced pegs, any of which offer an equal chance of a good day's fishing.
Unlike the Kidney Lake, there is no shelf around the fringes with the banks dropping straight down to the maximum depth of between four-and-a-half to five feet.
