About the Lake
The surroundings
Situated on the eastern edge of the stunning Morvan Regional Nature Park, the setting is perfect. There are no motorways in Morvan and the estate is located about half a mile from the nearest quiet country road reached by a private track which runs to the farm.
The peace and quiet will make a lasting impression on anyone who visits, pierced only by the occasional call of a soaring red kite or the plovers in the fields.
The lake
The 14 acre carp lake is between 4-5ft deep a short distance from the bank, reaching down to 12ft+ close to the dam end. The deeper water runs down the centre of the lake.
It has a clay and sandy bottom with some silty areas and a thin layer of silkweed covers most of it. Patches of weed are located mainly in the corners providing good stalking areas and the carp do regularly visit them. A pair of waders can be useful for landing and returning your prize.
Natural food is abundant with snails, mussels, crayfish and larvae and bloodworm ensuring the health and growth of the carp.
There are no poission chat but the crayfish can be a nuisance in the very hot weather when they become more active, but often the large carp will be in the same area as crayfish are one of their favourite treats! However, if you're fishing these months it is best to go prepared - you can find lots of information here for combatting crayfish in France. Tiger nuts fished over maiz e or hemp is a tried and tested method to use when crays are active.
Where to fish
Fishing is from a flat raised area bordering the woods and also from the dam wall. The area bordering the wood has space for up to four bivvies making it convenient for anglers who want to fish together.
The sun rises opposite the forest bank and by lunchtime the woods provide some of that much needed shade in the summer months making it an extremely comfortable lake to fish. This is a fabulous natural lake as opposed to a purpose made venue.
It is not possible to drive your tackle to your swim as cars cannot come further than the car park at the corner of the lake. The distance is approximately 110m from the car park to the wooded bank and approximately 130m from the car park to the middle of the dam wall.
