The Runswater, now know as Dave's Runs Water, is six acres in size and was formerly part of the old trout lake.

It has an average depth of six feet and there are several gravel bars which are worth finding as these are features where the fish like to gather.

The deepest part of the lake can be found off the oak tree where depths go down to 10 feet.

The lake was stocked in 2011 with over 500 carp averaging around 9lbs but running to 15lbs, making Dave's Runs Water an ideal venue for the budding carp angler visiting Fisherwick Lakes for short sessions.

In addition to the carp there are also some quality bream to 9lbs, making the lake good for the feeder angler.

Dave's Runs Water has a total of 12 pegs which means that there is plenty of space between anglers with little chance of them casting ovcer each other's lines.

So far the most popular techniques for fishing the lake have been either a method feeder or using pva bags with crushed boilies or pellets.

Meat and corn work well for hook baits.

Anglers should note that bait boats and spodding are not allowed and that only prebooked members may night fish the water.

As with Specimen Lake, anglers fishing Dave's Runs Water must use a minimum line strength of 12lbs and have an unhooking mat and appropriate sized landing net.

Only barbless hooks should be used.
