if your unsure of what lures to take keep it simple

something like an 8 inch soft bait replicant style or big grubs with juigs heads to suit
00 kussamo professor (much underrated andrelativly easy to work)

unless you want to spend a fortune then true jerkbaits are out of the equation

Arlesford, it's their new water that was originally for Cemex plus members only. Due to what I believe was lack of support for that particular ticket its now a day ticket water open to all. There's some nice Carp in there.
