Astbury Mere

Does anybody have any tactics for winter fishing this place?

I hear it has a good stock, but their hard to catch. I was wondering if anybody could help?


Thanks!

All the above! - on a more serious note, don't be put off by the deeper parts of the lake. Fish have been out at, in and around, the 20ft mark as the weather's been turning.
