Office Lake Fishery - Catfish fishing Nottinghamshire, carp fishing in Nottingham

Brief History:

Office Lake was dug out as a gravel pit in the late 1950’s early 60’s by the Hoveringham

Gravel Company. During the excavations the remains of a mammoth were found and thus a

mammoth was used as the firms logo. The lake was originally used by the management only

(hence the name Office Lake) and in 1973 won an award for the best restoration of a

gravel pit. Sadly for the last 20 years the lake has been neglected.

It is now being restored to its former glory and is available for specialist fishing and is very

well stocked with The Wels European Catfish currently 70+lb,

Pike, Eels, Perch, Rudd and Roach exist in good numbers and sizes too.

Carp up to 25lb have now been stocked. Drive and park at your large swims, no

barrows needed plenty of room even for large bivvies
