Our website features an outstanding collection of carp lakes in France, and each one is a credit to the dedicated people who run them. With this in mind, we spoke with Fabien at Linstant and asked him a few questions to learn more about his journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

1. When did you discover carp fishing and how did you come to be here at the lake?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I learned to fish for carp from an early age with my dad and later with friends. Over the years, I wanted to have my own lake to fish, and eventually decided to open a venue so I could welcome anglers and meet new people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.<\/strong>\u00a0What\u2019s the best and worst part of being the owner?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me, the best thing about being an owner is to be able to manage the lake in my own way and to improve the environment on a daily basis.
The worst thing is avoiding fish mortality.<\/p>\n\n\n

4.<\/strong>\u00a0When people arrive is there anything they are surprised by?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When people arrive for the first time, they\u2019re often surprised by the beauty of the place and how peaceful it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.<\/strong>\u00a0What would you say is the best feature of your lake?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best thing on the lake is the fishing pods with electricity and wifi, the quality of the sanitary facilities, the exclusivity of the lake and the tranquillity.<\/p>\n\n\n

5. What is the most common mistake you see anglers make at your lake?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most common mistake is using the boat too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Finally, what is the one most important piece of advice you\u2019d give to anglers visiting your lake soon?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My advice would be to fish precisely and make the most of the bait boat.<\/p>\n\n\n

Carp lakes in France \u2013 Linstant<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Linstant offers a brilliant lake exclusive option for one or two anglers. This mature, two\u2011acre lake in the Pays de la Loire<\/a> region is incredibly pretty, full of features and set in peaceful western France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A real highlight is the large double swim, complete with two wooden pods, each fitted with power points and lighting. With a picnic bench and BBQ beside you, it\u2019s perfectly set up for a social, easy going week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fishing is straightforward, with around 76 carp to over 45lb, making Linstant an ideal choice for a relaxed week in quiet, comfortable surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
