St Georges is a 45 year old gravel pit which was virtually unfished until taken over by Still Water Leisure in 2001. Nine acres in size, it contains troughs, gulleys, bars and plateaux. In fact local angling legend and Anglers Mail contributer Bill Rushmer, who "guest" fished there for pike in the 1980's, described the lake bed as being "like the seven hills of Rome". Depths go down to 17 feet with an average depth of 8.

Autumn 2001 was spent clearing undergrowth and building swims, also planting trees and reeds. It was during these work parties that carp were spotted in the lake; 3 grass carp, some nice commons and a big mirror - immediately named "George". It is estimated that there at least a dozen of these original fish.

Stocking took place in March 2002 with Mark Simmonds supplying 350 mirror carp of the Fishers Pond strain, weighing between 5 and 9 pounds. Fishing started in October of that year. Close to both the M3 and M25 motorways St Georges has a secure car park overlooking the water - this gives anglers easy access to the swims.
