  • You don't get many opportunities to see what lie beneath the waters surface, and that's exactly what we do in this video. Join me at the fantastic Lindholme lakes complex where they are undertaking the winter works on the famous Bonsai lake. Half of the Lake is allready de watered so you can see what you were fishing on and around. While half still needs the fish removing, will we get any suprises along the way .......
    hope you enjoy the video, something slightly different to normal but hopefully interesting
    thanks
    Kayleigh

    You can see why those pegs are fliers, all those reeds by the undercuts opening onto what looks a much cleaner, harder bottom than the rest of the lake.

    interesting to see a lake drained... incredible amount of silt 20+years worth..? must be great making it deeper with shelves etc... on the 'lesser ' pegs id put secret deeper holes there to hold fish an even the odds up... also underwater shelters for fish to hide in and make a sneaky feature on a bland peg....
