Details of your catches:

Although the fish had spawned, we had a great weeks fishing, catching 66 fish, carp to over 37lb, obviously spawned out. We also had catfish over 47lb, all carp was super fit and hard fighting, a credit to Richard the bailiff's fish care.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

We caught on most things we tried, house bait did well, but we also used DNA bug, which was very successful, I also used impact particles banoffee boilies, again with good catch rates, wafters worked well, as did smaller snowman rigs.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Facilities were as advertised, well equipped kitchen, and good shower, toilet etc, plenty of hot water, with no issues, as good as we have experienced.

Were you happy with them?

Very happy.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Highly recommended, probably the best overall lake we have booked.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Angling lines were top notch, always available for advice, and no problems at all. I have used others, but Angling Lines are the best.

A thoroughly enjoyable week, with plenty of fish caught. Can’t thank Rich enough for all his help, too bloke.

Details of your catches:

We all had PB`s. One 50lb fish came out twice to different anglers. Two massive catfish at 50lb and 54lb plus 31lb and several smaller ones around 5lb each. In all we had 35 fish between us. Lots of 20`s, several 30`s and a couple of 40`s. Mixture of commons and mirrors and grass carp. Oh and a couple of big eels.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Bait boat to the island and the margins under tree cover. Small pop up bolies and wafters, mixed with particle and pellets.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Facilities as described, perfectly adequate, plenty of hot water for a shower, well equipped kitchen, no complaints.

Richard the bailiff was very helpful and gave us a lot of useful tips. We would have struggled without his help. Very nice lake, out in the French countryside, very peaceful most of the time except for the noisy frogs and toads. Our trip coincided with the fish spawning on the Wednesday night through to Friday, so things slowed down a bit then. We would have done better had it not been for that happening. Brilliant first trip to France fishing, all had PB`s will probably go again next year.
