We are half draining the lake again this winter and we’re going to have plenty of interesting stories to share. This week I’ve started the lime treatment which will take place over the next couple of months. It was great to be able to apply lime directly on top of the silt in the shallows while the lake is still half empty. The netting video will be out in January.
I've spread tonnes of that on are farm ,an always been frightened of getting in local water corse coz of stripping the oxygen, but the amount you have put in is quite high but it makes total sense, I love your place ,an hopefully one day will visit ,keep up the good work
Thank you mate, appreciate that. I wouldn't be comfortable doing this type of work without the advice of a professional I can tell you! We've been doing it regularly for 14 years now and there's been zero negative impact on the fish. We're increasing the dosage this year because the lake is half empty and following a defined program.
Added 5 tons per acre of ag lime to our lake this year. Unbelievable change in the water quality since then! Previously we had horrendous cyanobacteria blooms and now we have a healthy 24" phytoplankton bloom.
Once my girlfriend was trying to spod with the fishing chair attached to the spod.....might as well the tea spoon went the same way..... or an angry bugger....

Matt always impressed by the love & attention you put into your lake
Thanks mate 👍
Another very informative video. Yours is one of the few channels I watch to the full. I hope many more fishery owners and clubs watch this. 👍
Brilliant 👏 👏 i wish all lake owners took the time to look after their lake as much as you do. Excellent 👍 👌
Thank you mate 👍

Lime is nasty stuff! Always fascinating watching the care and attention you put into the lake! A real passion!

Great informative video

Grea vid goes to show that buying a lake is not an easy task proper management is essential,
Gamm Vert have this (chaux vivre) in 10kg bags. Good work.
Yeah, it's readily available in lots of places.

Did i miss the video of you netting the lake?? You said "As you've seen" but I can't find the video
Ah sorry for the confusion mate, I mis-spoke! The netting video will be out in January 👍
@matthewcollinsangler ah brilliant. I love the netting videos. Your last one was the one that made me subscribe!
@@Pr0ject2 Cool! We'll be doing several videos this time focusing on different topics 😊
