I haven't fished Ivy House Lakes for a long time, and i do have some fond memories of the place, as I did have a good run of matches fishing paste long.  I reckon that will work this summer.

Andy and his wife are the new owners of Ivy House Lakes and they have restocked the lakes. The Big Lake/Match Lake have recently been stocked with these carp, which are little beauties, they range from 8oz to 1lb 8oz, most of the stock carp are around 1lb.

I fished 4mm white pellet on the hook and fed 4mm coarse pellet.
