The Pines
Heron Lake
One of the smallest lakes on the complex and the newest.
The Pines was dug around 10 years ago, so still features quite a new, baron look to it, but the fish stock is fantastic and multiple hits can achieved.
A very good chance of a twenty!
What you need to know?
The bank opposite the swims is out of bounds, thus fishing long to the far-bank margins can be productive.
Try fishing potent bottom baits and pop-ups, with small PVA mesh bags of pellets and boilie crumb.
The fish also respond well to pungent PVA stick mixes so these are worth a try too. Add oily, fishy liquids in summer and something a little fruiter and more soluble in winter.
Also, don’t neglect the zigs because these can score well on Pines too, especially if the water clears a little in the winter months.
