Unfortunately no.

General Comments:

Found the bailiff didn't take much care of the anglers. Frank don't talk English really. Facilities were really really poor. The lake itself is beautiful. Lake was really shallow and so weedy was hard to even fish.

*Owner's note* We were not aware of the charging facilities not working at any time and have received no complaints regarding this prior to this feedback, the only days these services are not available is Sunday and Monday but we do state this clearly on the rules. Bailiff Franck is at the lake Tuesday through to Friday but both Mark and Franck are always available via mobile, we supply these numbers on the info pack and urge anglers to give us a call with any problems so we can do our best to rectify them.

Over 60 fish between 10 of us, 5 40s, 17 30s

Grass: 44.12

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Double wafting tiger nuts did 90% of the bites, three fish came to a snowman.
Small amounts of tigers and boilie on a spot, productive spots got topped up a couple of times a day with another small amount of boilie and tigers. The weed growth was a little heavy in places on the lake but fishing on the fringes of it produced the bites. A thick band of weed 30 yards from the swim proved a little problematic and we dropped 11 fish between us.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Fourth time on large so no surprises, our portable generator kept things charged and the shower was clean and hot throughout the week

Were you happy with them?

Yep no problems whatsoever

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

I certainly would, a challenging venue at times, but one of my favourites. There's no hustle and bustle at brocard, its big, peaceful and excellently run.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes I would, and I do so.

General Comments:

Turned up at the lake to find only us and two french guys fishing (who left wednesday morning), which really surprised me. If people are put off by the weed in the hotter months, its really nothing to worry about. Okay you are going to lose a few with barbless hooks, but we still managed plenty of fish and more than our previous visits in April and September. Missed Franck who was on holiday our week but was well looked after by Mark and Steve. All the guys and girls on Brocard Small were great and we look forwards to coming back.
