Woodpecker syndicate PCF in Cambridgeshire

Woodpecker is a mature and established 15-acre lake set in beautiful countryside. Originally stocked in the 1980’s then used as a trout lake for approx. 20 years, the current syndicate was established in 2011 and has grown year on year. Fish have been chipped over the years to create an accurate record of stock, growth rates and general condition with approximately 125 known fish including 20 at 30-35lb, 11 fish between 35–40lb, there are 10 fish over 40lb of which 6 are over 50 up to 64lb. There are approximately 60 original Commons including 13 over 30lb to 42lb, a handful of original Mirrors with the remainder being mostly Mirrors stocked over the past 10 years.

The lake being a clear gravel pit can get weedy in the summer months but has always been fishable albeit a little closer to the lake edge. There is an abundance of features to fish too, with many bars, troughs and silty areas. Purpose built swims are dug into the bank with plenty of room to bivvy up and relax, spaced to provide plenty of water yet still be sociable. There is a flush toilet, a security / Otter fence around the perimeter of the fishery and electric gated entrance, providing a safe environment to enjoy your fishing. Woodpecker is a popular syndicate and to date has sold out every year, the waiting list is very long and has been temporarily closed. Any available full tickets are offered to existing midweek members.
