Lowerhouse Lodge Winter League 2022/2
Lowerhouse winter league final
After all that cold weather, snow and rain I really feared the worst, but the lodge has fished pretty decent to be fair.
Thanks to all the lads support again this year. Good news is the league will be back again next winter .
Onto the fishing, top 4 were mega mega close with just 1 fish in it in most rounds and today's been an absolute nail biter.

Lowerhouse winter league Round 5
Freezing temps overnight eted us this morning which played
its part today.
Some real drama today with a huge lost fish for 1 man that would of taken top spot and a brilliant bream bag for another shifting the landscape of the league all together.
Well done all see you in 2 weeks.

Lowerhouse winter league Round 2.
Lodge is now nearly at full capacity with all the rain we've had over the last 2 weeks. Always seems to knock the carp off feeding when the colour changes as so has been the case today. Some much better bream and skimmer weights so things are starting to settle for winter. Well done to today's winners
