I wanted to do a single 24 hour overnight session starting at 4pm (normal arrival time for Lillybelle) but I asked my friends to give me complete control over baiting and placement of rigs. Thankfully they both agreed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-24940\" src=\"https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a2.jpg\" alt=\"french carp lake lillybelle\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a2-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After 18 hours of fishing and a completely sleepless night, we finished after at 10am managing 11 fish to 30lb+ with all 3 of us loosing a fish each on top. I think that the lack of rain and low water level is making the fishing a bit more sporadic, but far from impossible. The drop in temperature really helped us and we enjoyed a terrific little session.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-24941\" src=\"https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a4.jpg\" alt=\"french carp lake lillybelle\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a4.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a4-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2017\/07\/a4-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>For more information on Lillybelle follow the link \u2013<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/Lillybelle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Carp Fishing Holidays in France<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has been a very sunny and dry 2017 here in France and, along with many other lakes in France, Lillybelle&#8216;s water level has suffered as a consequence.
