Lake Layout

Hendre Lake, situated in Cardiff, spans a considerable area featuring a prominent island at its centre. A short spit of land extends into the water, providing anglers a strategic spot near the island's small bay—ideal for native carp that frequent this section. Alongside the lake's length, a gravel bar adds texture to the landscape. The nearby railway tracks play a unique role; they draw numerous silver fish, especially Bream, making parts of the lake particularly interesting for match anglers.

Access and Facilities

Visitors to Hendre Lake can take advantage of disabled access and facilities, ensuring a comfortable experience for all. The venue offers club memberships for those looking to engage more deeply with the angling community. Additionally, day ticket access makes it easy for casual anglers to enjoy a day by the water without a long-term commitment.

Fish Species

Hendre Lake is home to a variety of fish, with Bream being notably abundant near the railway tracks. Carp enthusiasts will appreciate the "runs" water, where carp can grow up to 30 lb thanks to a dedicated restocking and feeding programme. This ensures that anglers have ample opportunities to target sizeable specimens, enhancing the fishing experience.
