On Saturday 25th July 2020 a new junior member Harry Reeves landed a 18lbs 15ozs common carp at Broadwater on his first visit to the lake. 

On Sunday 12th July 2020 11 year old junior member Lily Thrumble landed a 22lbs common carp at Broadwater in the swim next to the Oaks.

Lily was fishing with her Dad, senior member Robert, but played, netted and landed the carp with no help at all from him.

The carp was rather too heavy for Lily so her Dad is holding it in the photo.
