Blake Lake in Staffordshire
As I was pining for the lake, I found Blake Lake in Britain. Well, the water is open in the pictures. But the fish don't sound very attractive. Carp, chub... Would you pay 6 pounds a day to fish at this Blake Lake.

The original lake at Blake Hall Fisheries, Blake Lake was extended to its present three acres in size and transformed from a former trout fishery at the end of 2003...
Blake Lake holds the biggest of the Blake Hall fish including common and mirror carp to 16lbs with a lot of fish around double figures; bream to 3lbs; plenty of skimmers and roach to about 1lb 8oz; perch to 3lbs; tench to 4lbs; barbel to 5lbs and a good head of chub to 3lbs...
The water has four central islands each situated about 20 metres from the bank...
Although Blake Lake tends to have an even bottom with a fairly regular depth of around five feet, it does shallow slightly to four feet at the end furthest from the clubhouse...
