15 fish caught in one week ranging from 19- 42.5lb.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Fished tight to far margin in middle of the big two trees, fished at both sides of the island & stalked up at the narrow end of the lake. Used sticky bait- blood worm & Urban nutcracker. Used longshank snowman rigs & a claw rig with a hardened bottom bait. Used 20mm boilies & Korda boilie shrinkwrap around the hookbaits to deal with the poisson chat. Bait regularly.

Were you happy with them?

Only thing you could ask for is a hot tub and some bigger fish, sure this will come in time. Great family holiday, its not all about the size of the fish, this place is very nice and scenic.

Gilles will give advice on the best spots and he knows what he's talking about. Listen to him! :)

Were the facilities what you expected?

Better than expected. The house is huge and very comfortable. The t.v has has a lot of channels in French, German and English. The wi fi is actually quite good for a rural spot! The pool and the surrounding valley is amazing. Couldn't ask for better.

Were you happy with them?

Absolutely.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Definitely.. already have.

Fantastic location and fantastic hosts. Gilles dropped by a few times to see how things were and if we needed anything. If we were in need of something he had no problem sorting it out as soon as he could. Highly recommended for an angling and family holiday combined. Can't wait to go back!
