General Comments:

A great weeks fishing, a little slow due to cold front but fish still catchable if you worked at it. Medhi has done an incredible amount of work around the lake this winter, swims have been mulched making them mud free in wet weather, a lot of trimming of surrounding plant life has given the venue a very smart look, come this summer the place is going to look stunning! This is by far the best big fish water I have fished in France (and there has been a few!) Just got to get back there ASAP!!!!!

General Comments:

Weather was a factor, frost for the first 2 days, then rain, variable wind direction. Last 2 days went mild and a westerly wind, made the fish come on the feed a bit. Had the Tench on the thursday night, and the common early on the last morning.
