Details of your catches:

Frank and Graham caught 57 Carp (24 and 33).
Frank had 2 forties/9 thirties with a PB common at 39 8. Graham had 2 forties/ 4 thirties with a PB mirror at 46 12. Caught fish from all locations on lake so listen to Gilles about hotspots and tactics

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Used 8 to 10 inch fluorocarbon KD rigs with size 6 and 4 barbless hooks. Single Quest baits Raja Spice 20mm boilies worked best. Fished mostly from mid day to 1am. Didn't fish every day and didn't fish all night.

Were the facilities what you expected?

The facilities are excellent and have been upgraded with additional bedrooms downstairs and touches all over the house. The Fishing tackle has been upgraded to latest Daiwa Infinity BR reels and Latest Fox Rods with Nash alarms.....you will not be disappointed

Were you happy with them?

Absolutely over the moon. Great facilities, great Fishing, great owner / hosts who couldn't do enough to service our requirements. We had a 5 mth baby and Sharon's team of Holly, Georgia, Harry and Gilles / Phillipe had set everything up for a brilliant holiday

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Magical Mas Bas as we've named it due to the peace, tranquility, facilities, great fishing, excellent locale for history buffs, great food and restaurants close by. Yes yes yes we've recommended to family and friends and work colleagues. Read Tims write up and watch the Videos. There's nothing to touch Mad Bas if your looking for a family fishing holiday . From Gatwick to site in just over 3 hours....Go Fly drive it's easier and the hire tackle is top end where it matters IE reels rods alarms.......were back in Sept and have booked next year

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes absolutely have and Sharon/Gilles are very professional, client focussed, who went out of their way to meet all of our requests. We had a 26 th birthday party and even baked birthday cakes. Mas Bas is a tranquil retreat with proximity to local towns and historical sites and ire family attractions. Can't thank them enough ....other than repeat bookings in Sept this year and July next year for my 60th

General Comments:

Magical Mas Bas has it all, excellent family accommodation, great facilities with 2 pools, great fishing with many 30s and forties plus a few Fifties to challenge you, great local historical sites, great local food options, and above all excellent owner/ hosts who go out of their way to make your family holiday brilliant but they're not intrusive with it.

Details of your catches:

121 Fish

6 x 40's (biggest 45lb 10oz mirror)
13 x 30's
61 x 20's
41 x doubles (including 3 Koi's)

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Fish tight to far margins or features. We used 20mm Cell over a large bed of bait, Plenty of bait to get them going.

Rest your swim every now and then and they will move back on the bait. We fished days only from sunrise till dusk, too knackered to do a night.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Great clean facilities with everything you need for your stay

Were you happy with them?

We were very happy with the holiday

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

I would recommend Mas Bas but I won't because it would mean that more people would find this fantastic lake.

Gilles and Sharon were great and very helpful.

General Comments:

Especially suitable for (large) families who like to socialize (up to 3 well equipped cottages, 2 swimming pools and 2 Carp lakes, very close to each other) and fish at the same time at a very nice and relaxing venue.

We've been to many other Carp venues, but Mas Bas is the best so far.
