Information

Situated just a short distance from Cambridge, Crystal Lakes Leisure Fishing is a highly regarded 26-acre complex that offers lodges, caravan and camping facilities for families looking to enjoy a memorable holiday. In addition to these accommodations, the complex also features a premium specimen carp lake that is perfect for angling enthusiasts. The Jacobs Lake is a stunning 4.3-acre body of water with 26 swims available for anglers. Fifteen of these swims can be booked through Catch, providing spacious and well-maintained settings for anglers to relax in while they try their luck at catching some large carp that can weigh up to 36 pounds. This quiet venue is ideal for carp anglers of all skill levels, with a variety of fishing options available to suit different preferences. Anglers can expect to catch dark scaley mirror carp as well as chestnut dark commons, with sizes ranging from double figures up to 36 pounds. The lake also contains other species such as Tench, bream, roach, rudd, pike, and perch, providing anglers with a diverse range of fishing opportunities. Depths in the lake vary from 3 feet to 35 feet, requiring anglers to explore the water using a marker rod to find the best spots. Fishing tactics such as spodding over a large area and using three rods staggered throughout the spot have proven to be effective, as well as fishing with PVA bags and bright pop-ups. Including sweetcorn in the bait mix has also been successful in attracting carp. The venue is pet-friendly, allowing anglers to bring their well-behaved dogs along for the fishing trip. Crystal Lakes also offers great facilities and food delivery services, making it convenient for anglers to enjoy extended fishing sessions of 48 hours or more. With its friendly atmosphere and variety of fishing options, Crystal Lakes Leisure Fishing is a fantastic destination for anglers looking for a relaxing and enjoyable fishing experience.
