Belvoir Waters in Kilvington, Nottinghamshire, is a renowned Carp and Coarse fishery that has gained fame for its Specimen Lake, also known as Lake 1. This impressive 24-acre old gypsum quarry is home to approximately 500 carp, with the current lake record standing at 32lb. Anglers flock to this water for a chance to catch some truly incredible carp in a picturesque and remote setting. The Specimen Lake offers 24 swims for anglers to choose from, providing a variety of options for different preferences. With an average carp size of 15lb to 20lb, the lake is perfect for experienced anglers looking to test their skills. The lake features depths of up to 50ft in some areas, with an average depth of 8ft throughout much of the lake. The predominantly clay-based substrate creates weed beds in the summer months, offering a range of features for anglers to target. Anglers can expect to find a mix of common and mirror carp in the lake, with the potential to catch uncaught carp and perhaps even some surprises in the future. During the warmer months, anglers often focus on shallower spots and margins, as the carp are known to respond well to good quality boilies. Staying mobile and looking for signs of fish is recommended for proactive anglers, while those who prefer baiting and waiting can enjoy regular action by topping up their spots after bites. The venue provides 24 pegs with varying spacing to cater to both social anglers and those seeking solitude. Anglers of all mobility levels can easily access the swims, with the option to park behind them for convenience. During rough weather in winter, the fishery team is on hand to tow anglers out for a small fee, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable fishing experience. Belvoir Waters offers a welcome escape from the ordinary day ticket venues, providing a sense of wild fishing in a beautiful setting in Belvoir Vale.
