Today, this five-acre site is a Club spot with a lot of depth. There are several flat banks along the sides, with tree-lining providing plenty of coverage and variety.

This spot is just on the west side of Woburn Sands, just to the southeast of Milton Keynes.

Mostly known as a specialist carp lake, this water carries a number of bream, tench, and pike as well. That gives anglers plenty of variety once they venture in, with many of the fish in Woburn Sands earning nicknames due to their impressive bearings.

The Club has made a good effort to stock the lake at Woburn Sands and that’s tilted things a fair bit, with plenty of fish of good size up for a catch.

What tactics work well?
