What size do the fish go to?
Carp go up to 40 lbs., bream to 8 lbs. and mirror carp to over 30 lbs..
What tactics work well?
Boilies work well for the carp fished to snags, and the margins are a great but in warmer months. In the colder months, the fish hold up in the deeper water, but can be tempted with bright pop-ups usually. The lake is also very silty and light leads and very strong tackle is a must.
