Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Most fish caught up to the treeline on opposite bank, using wafters

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes, as we have been there several times

Were you happy with them?

Yes, apart from there is no freezer to put bait in, there is a big fridge with a tiny freezer

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Indeed. Brie is a fantastic venue, not easy but some fantastic fish. It has very basic facilities, but you would be hard placed to find a more peaceful venue

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes indeed

Details of your catches:

19fish,
5x50’s,9x40’s,5x30’s

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Lakes boilies fished on long hairs with 12” semi stiff hooklinks across to far margin

Were the facilities what you expected?

Was told there was another freezer, last visit fed back lack of freezer space, no xtra freezer, fortunately I had purchased a portable 60 litre freezer which I took so with freezer that was on site we had enough space.
Toilet shower facilities fine.
*Angling Lines note* Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it. Just to clarify, outside the toilet and shower facilities under the large barn roof, there is an upright fridge/freezer as well as a separate chest freezer for bait. We apologise if you were expecting something different.

Were you happy with them?

Apart from freezer all ok

Advice to other anglers visiting lake would be to take a push bike as freezer, showers an toilets are up by the farm house

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes definitely. Amazing lake with a amazing stock of carp.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Most definitely, Angling Lines is fantastic 10/10 can’t fault at all. Would highly recommend.

General Comments:

La Brie is a amazing lake! Everything a carp angler would want and more, quiet peaceful beautiful lake, surrounded by beautiful woodland and wildlife. For me it was paradise, can’t wait to go back.

Details of your catches:

16 carp caught in total:
1x 57lb
1x 52lb
1x 47lb
1x 44lb
2x 40lb
10x high 30s

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Fishing towards the woodwork and in the central bowls.

Were the facilities what you expected?

This year there wasn't a shower mop provided and only 1x light working in the shower room.
The fridge/freezer provided isn't large enough for 4 x anglers. Recommend another be provided so each peg has a fridge/freezer.
*Angling Lines note* Thank you for your feedback, the owner advises us that the mop and light will be dealt with ASAP. Whilst the fridge/freezer is family sized, we take your notes on board for if we need to make a replacement.

Were you happy with them?

Yes, they were spotlessly clean, could maybe do with updating.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Excellent venue for a small social. Hidden gem of a lake.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Everything on point from Angling Lines. All paperwork and updates for ferry crossings sorted very professionally.
Fishing venue clean.

General Comments:

Recommend check-in be done at the lake location, and bait be dropped at your swim on arrival.
With checking in at Jonchery puts an additional 2hrs on your trip. 45 minutes extra each way and 30 minutes checking in and organising bait.
