Oakwood Park Lake offers anglers a chalk-based lake with a variety of fishing opportunities. The lake’s unique topography makes it easy to find good drop spots from any swim around the lake. Anglers often move swims regularly and recast until they locate a productive area, which has led to multiple catch visits for many anglers.

During the warmer months, fishing towards the islands and targeting the margins can be fruitful. However, as the temperatures drop, the fish tend to move into the deeper areas of the lake, requiring anglers to adjust their fishing strategies accordingly.

One of the standout features of Oakwood Park Lake is its reputation as the home to some of the UK’s largest catfish. While this may result in a higher ticket price during the summer months, the venue becomes more accessible to carp anglers during the winter when the price is considerably lowered to £25 for a 24-hour session.

Whether you’re targeting the impressive catfish or the carp, Oakwood Park Lake offers a range of fishing experiences throughout the year. Anglers can enjoy the challenges presented by the lake’s unique features and the opportunity to land some of the notable fish that reside there.
