Opening in early 2016, Cawcutts was Embryo’s second water to fully open. Prior to Embryo’s lease, the lake had laid largely neglected and unused. After fully fencing and re-stocking the lake under careful stewardship from the dedicated fishery management team, this has given Cawcutts a new lease of life.

Stocked with over 200 carp between 12-25lb to supplement the existing handful of originals, these carp have flourished in the lake and shown incredible growth rates in the rich waters (helped with the head of crayfish which they adore!). After five years the average size of the carp is now around, if not over twenty pounds, with an estimated 120-130 carp over this weight, including around thirty thirties, up to a current lake record of 42lb. With the speed these carp are growing, it won’t be long before the average size is well over 20lb.

The lake is split into two distinct ends and although the lakebed is relatively flat, the lack of weed and uniform depth of water allows for anglers to build good hits of fish if they fish well. Don’t be scared to give them plenty of bait as they are hungry fish with plenty of growing potential!

Due to high demand, the waiting lists for this venue are now closed until further notice.
