Fishing Quoisley Meres or Quoisley Big Mere: what the data says
10-acre lake near Cheshire. The lake tops out around 8 ft. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
The drawn water covers 10 acres wrapped in 0.5 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. The whole water is littoral — nothing here runs deeper than ~15 ft, so it's all weed-and-bait territory.
Brown Trout fishing at Quoisley Meres or Quoisley Big Mere
Start shallow in spring: brown trout sit in 1 to 8 ft that time of year. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 2 to 8 ft, winter 1 to 8 ft. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 4 ft of water that rates prime for brown trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around after dark and early morning. Throw a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) until the fish tell you otherwise.
