I lost 12 fish in snags, which you have to fish to, as this is where the majority of fish are.

Sweet baits fishing far margins

Good but light on a timer went off after 5 mins so during your shower it went dark
Also shower head hook was missing from the wall so you had to hold it in your hand

General Comments:

I would like to say we were the only paying customers on the lake. The French bailiff had allowed his son to fish on the lake, knowing pegs 2 and 3 were producing fish and did not give us the opportunity to choose a different peg, even though we were the only customers that had paid to fish. Mark the bailiff turned up Monday and said the French bailiffs son and his mates were leaving and suggested moving as all the fish were on swim 2 where his son was fishing, we moved everything on Monday afternoon and fished peg 2 and that’s where we caught ALL of our fish no sign of fish at all on our original peg 4. I feel as we were the only paying customers on the lake the French bailiff should have given me the opportunity to choose a peg as he knew which pegs had been fishing best I think it was out of order he put his son on the peg that had been clearly fishing well before offering me the chance to choose a different peg knowing full well no fish had been caught on peg 4 for weeks .
*Angling Lines note* Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate how frustrating it is when the fishing is slow. We have discussed the points you have raised with the bailiff, Mark. It is correct that there were anglers fishing from swim 2 at the start of your trip. We understand that swims 1 and 3 were available if you had wished to move earlier. Mark has also advised that fishing had generally been slow over the past few weeks across many lakes in France, including Brocard, and that this was not an issue isolated to swim 4.
