Fish Records
There are many club records from all of the Beacon waters, mainly from Mount Farm lake, as this has the largest stock of fish.
Due to the extensive stock in Mount Farm lake the records are constantly being beaten; just recently the carp record has been broken again at 35lb 2oz, and again 2 day ago (29th June 07) at 37lb!
The records below are as in the Beacon membership book for season 07/08, however they are updated in due course.
