Whilst Lakeside holds a variety of big fish including mirrors to 30lbs, commons to 28lbs and pike to 20lbs, its head of Old English true crucians are perhaps most noteworthy with specimens known to run to over 4lbs.
The water also holds good stocks of roach to over 2lbs as well as bream, perch, ide and tench.
One of the nice things about the Lakeside fish its that they are always in good condition, and even the small roach shine with silver, their red fins and eyes adding a dash of colour.
The crucians are a lovely burnished bronze, and even the small 1lb fish fight with the determination and guile of the much bigger commons and mirrors.
