Weed - All the lakes will have a presence of weed. This is a natural occurrence, although does provide a more challenging session for anglers. However, those anglers with some knowledge will be able to change their fishing styles and bait to amend each lake and session. The weed helps provide cover for fish, oxygenate the water and provides a natural habitat for the fish and other species of wildlife that habit the lake.
