What is more disturbing is the fact that this lake has no inflow from any watercouse, it is filled by storm water off houses, so how does it have carp in it ???
I believe some people are transferring carp into these waters where 99% of fish wouldn't survive

Re: Manor lakes carp
One of the ways fish get into landlocked lakes is wildfowl and wading birds. Spawn sticks to thier leg and is transferred when they fly to a different water system.

Re: Manor lakes carp
I m not sure if it is the exact same lake it probably is,but if iwas,a mother deliberately drove her car into the lake,and all her kids died.FV delete or edit if you wish,im saddened by this as it is.

Re: Manor lakes carp
I'm pretty sure it is the same lake. There is no need for us to delete anything as it is a tragic event that happened. No need to hide it. It happened unfortunately

Re: Manor lakes carp
I live not to far from manors lakes and it was upsetting to drive past the lake when they had police tape up at the lake...
R.i.p little kids....
But life goes and have no issue driving past the lake or fishing it these days..
They have Easter event and Halloween ect events near the lake, had lots of good times there as well..
To many boats kayak, helicopter , catch a fish,catch a fish
