At just over four acres in size this mature gravel pit has been recently totally renovated to provide the LVRPA with a day ticket fishery for new carp anglers or those looking to bag up. Following intensive remedial fisheries work, the lake was stocked in 2006 with 200 Mirror Carp between 2lb and 5lbs.

An event on September 2006 shortly after the stocking resulted in 25 fish to the three anglers topped by one of the original mirrors at 251b 2oz now named "Melvyn's Fish", which is currently over 28lbs. This water is full of features i.e. gravel bars, plateaus, and beds of lily pads.

The pit has many underwater features including bars, plateaus, gullies, tree stumps and expansive weed beds. The swims on the lake are very comfortable being formal and constructed to a high standard.

There is a limit of two rods per angler. Under 16's must be accompianed by a responsible adult at all times, and cannot be dropped off at the lake to be left unsupervised whilst fishing.

Banjo Lake is run as a Day/Night Ticket fishery where swims*MUST be booked in advance from the Lee Valley Regional Park Fishery Bailiff by TEXT on 07908 948066 or EMAIL on davidanderson666@btinternet.com.

Anglers parking is available adjacent to the gate with only a short walk to the fishery. Access from Marsh Lane, Stanstead Abbots. For further info, visit the Lee Valley Park website (http://www.leevalleypark.org.uk/en/content/cms/leisure/angling/banjo_lake/banjo_lake.aspx).
