General Comments:

Gary and Ange were brilliant hosts and nothing was too much trouble. Food package was brilliant, Ange is a great cook. Fishing was challenging at times, but hard work paid off in the end with landing the biggest fish in the lake on our last evening. Both of us left with a new pb! The lake is beautiful and tranquil and we had such a relaxing week, we can’t wait to visit again.

Details of your catches:

8 fish from 23lb to a 46lb grass carp. The fish started spawning the day we arrived, which made it very hard and we were pleased with 8 fish under the circumstances!

General Comments:

This was my 5th trip to France for carp fishing and Dans 1st... For me, this has to be the best one yet mainly because of the hospitality and genuine passion Gary and Ange have for making anglers feel welcome and relaxed. Gary has great knowledge of Carp fishing and the lake itself which really helped getting though a tough week of weather conditions. The food package was superb which was cooked by Ange and the portion sizes were spot on.

During the week Gary will have a walk around and check in to make sure we were ok and enjoying ourselves. They have a lovely dog called Piper who would sit with us which was really nice. We enjoyed having Gary's company so much we invited him to join us on the bank for a 1 rod challenge (Unlucky Gary, better luck next time mate) See you next year!

Overall this is a fantastic place with brilliant owners to which we will be returning.

Details of your catches:

18 carp to 40lb13oz

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Wafters or snowman over pellet, particle and chopped boilies.

Were you happy with them?

Everything I needed was available.
