Details of your catches:

We had a total of 72 fish over our stay and fishing a few hours each day. Breakdown of catches were:
Grassy 7x doubles, 19 x twenties, 9x thirties.
Mirrors 2 x doubles, 6 twenties, 15 x thirties, 1 x forty @ 49lb 12 oz.
Commons 9 x doubles, 4 x twenties

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

We started by spread baiting far margin areas with boilie and crumb, as the week progressed and temperatures soared we dropped crumb as encouraged the poisson chat.
24mm boilies were whittled down in an hour so be prepared to use plastics or nuts. Margin areas and shaded areas should not be ignored. Do not believe you can overfeed the stock of this lake as baited after each take and sport continued.

Were the facilities what you expected?

The house is perfect for families and is located so close to the lake that you can fish and socialise safely. The pool is also fantastic and as the temperatures soared was used on a daily basis to cool off. The covered seating area and outdoor eating area is also superb and spacious to stay out of the direct heat of the sun. The photos really do not do the venue justice, it is set in the bottom of a tranquil and beautiful valley. At night you can only hear wildlife and deafening silence and is great for star gazing as no light pollution

Were you happy with them?

Absolutely loved the accommodation and Gilles and Theo were so welcoming and helpful with advice of the local areas and facilities.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

I would totally recommend this venue to a friend, just be advised it is a very long drive.
We opted to fly the families down to Bergerac which was only 90 minutes from Stanstead. If driving I would also recommend a bit&go tag for the autoroutes.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

This is the 2nd time I've booked through Angling Lines and both have been simple and painless, with great communication and a massive range of venues to suit everyone.

General Comments:

Loved the holiday, loved the venue, great sport in a beautiful location.
Sad to leave and already in discussion of when we could return.

Fishing was pure carnage most of the time with numerous double takes. Like others that have fished Mas Bas it’s difficult to use more than one or two rods due to the amount of runs that occur. Fished mainly mornings and late afternoon into the evening. No nights fished.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Snowman baits. Long stiff German rigs. Used 30kg boilies mix of krill, manilla, scopex squid in 20-22mm

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes. Clean and everything that was needed was there.

Were you happy with them?

Details of your catches:

56 carp - common, grass mirror and koi caught over the week. Fished mornings and evenings. Such a fantastic venue, especially as it is exclusive. Biggest was 47.5lb, majority over 30lb, all in superb condition.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Best baits were supplied by Gilles who is now my favourite French man. A bait boat is a must if fishing to the margin on the far bank, simple rigs work well, no need for anything complicated.

Were the facilities what you expected?

kitchen was great all you needed for your stay. We loved the outside space and ate and sat out all the time.

Were you happy with them?

Gilles and Sharron were fantastic nothing too much trouble, and if you want to know about the fishing ask Gilles and he will put you on them.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Had a fantastic holiday, the fishing is great, but also lots to explore in the area and numerous shops all within a short drive from the house.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Most definitely absolutely

General Comments:

Have already booked to go back next year, I think that says it all.
