Details of your catches:

Fishing could not have been better with over 110 fish caught with only 2 fishing days only. Mainly mid 20s and 5 30s, fish little down on weight but given 2 years of little anglers it’s no surprise. Stunning lake couldn’t ask for more!

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Simple rigs but stiff ish booms to keep presented in case of chat but we had no problems with them.

We went through over 75kilos and the fish really reacted to the bait. No bite for an hour 5 spombs and the rod was away while bait going in.

Tiger nut topped with corn maize was the main winner but my dad was catching just as much with boilie.

Far bank did very well but I love open water with 2 rods on a spot about 18 wraps bait going in after every fish and topping up really kept them grubbing!

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes our second visit to Mas Bas and it won’t be our last.
The weather was abit damp first day or 2 then we had high 20s the rest of the week which is amazing for the end of September.
Stunning house with a beautiful pool and amazing fishing! Really what more could you ask for. The drive down is a fairly long run but it is so worth it!

Were you happy with them?

Yes everything you could need is there and more. It was September so we had an open fire which just topped it all off beautiful sunny days and fire lit evening, just perfect!!!

General Comments:

The whole experience of Mas Bas is highly enjoyable the accommodations are excellent, fishing is great and the whole place is very relaxing.

Details of your catches:

84 fish 8lb to 33lb, next largest was 26lb
The same 33lb fish was caught 4 times, 40 of our fish were grass carp.
Bit disappointed with our larger catch, the lake has an average of 35lb our average and past averages on catch reports are well below that most of our fish were between 15-25lb.
We spotted the leather carp we caught in past photos on feedback we had it 4 times @ 33lb easily identifiable as one of its pelvic fins is missing in a photo from 2020 it was weighed at 39lb, so has lost a bit of weight over the year.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

22mm boillies
Double tiger nut and corn
Snowman
There are poison chat in the lake that strip your bait from rigs, we shrink wrapped ours, will be a problem if not addressed

Were the facilities what you expected?

General Comments:

Mixed emotions really thankful we got to fish after the cancellation, but the whole France experience for us about multiple 30’s and 40’s which was missing.

Details of your catches:

4 rods all from the poolside bank, 80+ fish lots of mid 20 mirrors,2 low 30lbs and 20ish grass carp up to 27lb. We also had a surprise of 3 koi carp all mid teens.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

20mm boilies 10/15 freebies every hour or so. Check your Boilies every hour because crayfish and poisson chat are in the lake. I had 3/4 poisson chat a day.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Three good size bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs all clean and in good working order. Very good size kitchen with dishwasher and large fridge freezer with all cooking accessories you need. Large indoor table and chairs for dinner time and two large comfy settees for the TV in the evening which had free view channels in English. In all very good.

We as a family were very happy with everything, it was our second trip to Mas Bas main lake and will be planning a third in the future
