Colnbrook West Lake is a four and a half acre venue filled with fish holding features, small bays and snaggy area’s.

Large beds of Norfolk Reeds grow along many banks and overhanging trees provide attractive area’s for the fish to hold up. Gravel bars can be found in many area’s and silt patches provide a home to large colonies of bloodworm. A large raised plateau can be found in the centre of the lake and during the Summer months this becomes a favourite spot for the Carp who can easily be observed cruising around this area.

Colnbrook West is quite an intimate venue but can still boast an impressive head of fish with up to ten of the Carp regularly exceeding thirty pounds to the current lake record of thirty eight pounds three ounces. There are more than thirty fish over twenty five pounds and a very good head of twenties and doubles. The carp population is backed up by some very nice Silvers with Bream being landed in double figures along with some huge Tench to eleven pounds.

Colnbrook West is the ideal venue for the angler looking to up their personal bests without moving to a large expanse of water and the huge variety of features can give experience of most angling situations. As one of our most popular venues Colnbrook West can get very busy, especially in the Summer months, so we recommend that anglers consider purchasing a ticket for a second water, such as neighbouring venue Orlitts.

• There is a seven day limit in any one swim after which the angler must move 90degrees around the lake.
