General Comments:

We had a great trip, three of us fished and my wife enjoyed the peaceful surroundings, I read the previous reports regarding snag leaders, they are a must!!! I had to change mine 3 times in the week due to the savage snags, we’d of lost many fish if we hadn’t had them, 20 ft minimum. Majority of the fish were held up at the southern end of the lake in the snags.

Details of your catches:

We caught Carp 34lb, 30lb, 20lb, 15lb. Koi 18lb. Sturgeon 23lb, 22lb, 22lb. Tench 5lb, and a couple of bream.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

A mixture of house cream seed boilie and Sticky Baits Manilla. Fished to margins and most of the fish came from the right of lake from the double swim by the main cabin. Also we used flouro leaders of 1 metre length, but lost at least 5-6 fish due to cut offs, from mussels. Like a previous review, we went to a local tackle shop and bought 70lb flouro to make longer leaders.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes very good and very clean. Two of our group were on their 1st ever France trip, they fished from the main accommodation. Myself and my buddy bivvy'd in the swim by the second cabin, so we were on hand to help the guys on their 1st trip, both of them got PB Carp. Towels and bedding for 4 supplied in the main cabin, also all pots and pans, plates, knives and forks and mugs provided as well.

Were you happy with them?

Yes very good. Exactly as expected and described on Angling Lines web site.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

I would recommend but not if your after breaking a PB fish average is quite small and from what I gathered I think there is only 1 50lber in the lake … correct me if I’m wrong?! Gerard and Carla are lovely and really helpful
