Jenkins Lake is a little over 1 acre in size with average depths of 7-8 feet. Three anglers are permitted on the lake although larger parties can be accommodated on request. The lake contains some of the most stunning commons and mirrors you are ever likely to catch with several now nudging the 30lbs mark. There is a good head of 20's with many upper doubles to back up the larger fish. Along with the mirrors and commons there are many other species of fish present:
Tench 9lbs+
Roach 3lbs+
Perch 4lbs
Crucians 4lbs+
Rudd 2lbs+
Wels 67lbs
Fishing tight to the far margin produces the majority of the fish although presenting a bait around the aerator which runs constantly is also worth a try. Fishing is only permitted from one bank although baiting up on the opposite bank is permitted providing trees and fauna are respected and not damaged. No fixed leads (helicopter / chod rigs etc) are permitted anywhere on the complex. Please use the row boat provided for any fish that may get snagged. Pulling for breaks is something that we seriously do not approve of and we always encourage the angler to retrieve their end tackle. The row boat can also be used to find suitable areas, placing hook baits and for baiting up purposes.
Bait boats are permitted and usually help produce the best results. The lodge is conveniently situated at the side of the lake. If you enjoy 5 star comforts when fishing, then this is the lake for you.
