Details of your catches:

We had a fantastic week for our first ever time visiting the Jonchery complex. This time opting for Jonchery 8. I would like to start by saying a huge thank you to Mark for all of his help and welcoming upon arrival. Everything about the complex was absolutely spot on and I would highly recommend Jonchery to anyone looking for a french holiday venue!

The lake itself was spotless and such a lovely place to spend a weeks fishing!

We managed 34 carp through the week up to 54lb 40z including numerous 20's, 30's and 40's! This was topped off with a couple of 30/40lb catfish too.

3x 50's (one recapture)
4x 40's
9x 30's
10x 20's
4 Under 20lb

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

We found that the fish certainly love the bait in there, going through 40kg boilies, 25kg pellet, 20kg particle and 10kg corn through the week. Simple wafter rigs fished to the far margin done 90% of the bites.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Facilities were spot on, showers, toilet, fridges and freezer. Everything you could ask for from a holiday venue.

Were you happy with them?

Yes most definitely.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

110% would recommend Jonchery to anyone looking for a venue for an up and coming trip. Fish are absolutely immaculate and a lot are certainly not your 'typical French fish'. With some lovely clean commons and scaly mirrors to go at, Jonchery should definitely be on your list!

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes!

General Comments:

A very difficult but rewarding week. The main lake, Jonchery 7 and our lake Jonchery 8 all struggled with low catches, possibly due to high air pressure.

We caught 8 carp ranging from 25lb to 50.02lb common which is a PB and also a 91.2lb catfish, a PB and a one hour battle to land it!! which we shall never forget.

Jonchery 8 is a beautiful lake, with great views and plenty of widelife, the carp in the lake are stunning and in really good condition.

Jonchery 8 is very shallow, watch out for the water levels as it does drop!! Mark topped up the lake, but it did take 10 hours to get back to the correct level.

Bait boats are a must, use the site party mix, pellets and plum boilies. Fish to the far tree line to find the gravel spots.

Details of your catches:

27 carp landed up to 47lb and one cat fish at 87lb

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

There own bait topped with pop up corn

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes

Were you happy with them?

Absolutely spot on

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Definitely 10/10
