To be totaly honest I have yeat to map the lake out yet ....just have not had time on each visit, as they have been so quick, I will be out there for much longer on the next one ...as I will be starting on the swims  so will do it then |

Not a bad idea Hodster at all. Average depths would be an advantage for all of us. |

If its like the other lakes in that region .....you will find they have a very level bottom just slightly deepening to the Dam for draining.
am out there in a couple of weeks to start swims and put the mobile home in place .....if I get time I will do a map for you to see |

Yes much as I said earlier .......deepest at the dam 6 to 7 foot
and the far end its about 3 foot .....its a gradual slop from the bank around the edges, apart from the dam , so you will need waders on most the swims ...to safely land the fish. |
