I believe experts saying to much vegetation resulting in lack of oxygen in the water hence the deforestation program and some chemicals being placed in the water. I don't know if it was a success, would be interesting to hear if anyone does know

Iv just spoke to someone who said the pond is fishing terrible with very few tench or anything else being caught and not as many people even bother going anymore , sad as I loved the water was magical into dusk with tench fizzing everywhere .
Here's hoping for future it picks up but didn't sound like it's worth a visit if true

Yes it was very good for tench but then it seemed to go downhill a few years ago never been back since. Its a shame such a nice place i thought

You deserve a medal for even trying! It seems to be a dead loss despite all the work that's gone in trying to improve it.
