Details of your catches:

4 cats from 8lb to 45lb. 3 grass carp from 16lb to 22lb and 14 mirror carp from 15lb to 35lb all hard fighting fish in excellent condition.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Cell boilies over groundbait and pellets. Set up with the wind blowing into your bivvy door and the fish will be in your area. If you are not catching then move swims.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Facilities were good. Shower toilet freezer microwave and hob.

Were you happy with them?

Yes, however it could benefit from a step to help to get in/out of the shower. For less able bodied anglers this would be a problem. A seperate shower/toilet would make life easier also.

General Comments:

we felt the fishing was slow as the temp was 30c every day with little wind.
Bernard and Fleur are great people and just leave you alone to get on with it, but if you have a problem they are only a phone call away.
