When did you discover carp fishing and how did you come to be here at Landes?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a fisherman myself it was always a dream to own my own lake in France, for years my wife and I had fished a friends lake here. We were fishing at the time\u00a0when we heard that this property with a lake was for sale &#8211; we arranged a visit and here we are. It was a lot of hard work to get it to the stage we are at and hopefully will improve year by year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.anglinglines.com\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/12\/landes2.jpeg\" alt=\"landes carp lake in france\" class=\"wp-image-26499\" width=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/12\/landes2.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/12\/landes2-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/12\/landes2-150x100.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/12\/landes2-768x513.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Landes lake in France<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. What\u2019s the best and worst part of being the owner?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The worst thing is when the fishermen do not catch a decent fish, we feel really bad for them. The best thing is when they get their personal best at our lake plus all the positive feedback we get back from everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. What would you say is the best feature of your lake?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>From the lakeside accommodation&#8217;s patio you can see the entire lake, which also has good access all the way round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. When people arrive is there anything they are surprised by?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone that has stayed with us have all said how pleasantly surprised they were, as the photos they had seen does not do it justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.anglinglines.com\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/02\/landes1.jpeg\" alt=\"landes lake in France\" class=\"wp-image-26122\" width=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/02\/landes1.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/02\/landes1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/02\/landes1-150x113.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.anglinglines.com\/blog\/wp-content\/images\/2019\/02\/landes1-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Landes with the swimming pool overlooking the lake<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. What is the most common mistake you see anglers make at your lake?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Not being right on their rods, but that\u2019s their choice of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Finally, what is the one most important piece of advice you\u2019d give to anglers visiting Landes soon?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We ask that they make themselves at home and don\u2019t be afraid to ask for help or advise.
