Top Flash is an iconic water and has a colourful history in the 90's carp fishing scene and some of you may know it by another name (Treetops).
However fate has taken its toll and some of the original larger residents are no longer there.
But some still remain, some fish from the stocking several years back are now starting to pack on the weight and the carp fishing improving, the largest fish a Mirror Carp currently around 31lb (2021) with a few others nearing 30lbs, there are also plenty of fish up to mid and high 20's.
The lake usually floods with the adjacent river Weaver, and there is a small connecting stream to the river, some fish are known to go into the river as they are caught there, and then the same fist turns up again later in the season back in the Flash. thankfully most of the fish stay resident on the lake.
Top Flash is a mixed fishery, holding large pike, some tench, chub, eels, roach, bream and hybrids. The bream shoals are large and regular match bags can be over 40lb, making it an excellent club match venue.
