General Comments:

Lake is stunning, well kept pegs, spot on fish growing like weeds, going to be very popular

Details of your catches:

Father & son team, relatively quiet week. 7 fish landed, majority commons, but lost 5 in the snags over in the far margin. Two 42lb commons - both PB's, one 39lb, one 26lb and the remaining were in and around the 20lb mark. Fish were in great condition, and hard fighting!

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Fished a variety of tactics and baits. We bait boated to the far margins as no fish showing in the middle of the lake. Most successful were sweet baits such as CC Moore Live System, fished over Bruno's particle mix, which was very good, and the house pellets. Fluorocarbon D rig worked the best.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Yes facilities were very good. As we were aware the trip to the toilets/showers were lengthy but Bruno has supplied a bike, and we took an additional one which helped massively! Be prepared for a 1.5 mile round trip so plan ahead!

Were you happy with them?

Yes, always clean and tidy, shower was excellent! Double pegs are spacious and gravel, really nice. There is a cabin which has two fridge-freezers and a chest freezer. In addition there are multiple charging points in the cabin, but remember to bring your UK adaptors and extension leads etc. as they are all French! You have your own key for your swim and the carp park gates.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes, but looking at the feedback and our own experience, a good week is around 10 -12 fish per angler, so slightly disappointed not to have caught more but that's fishing!!

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes, 1st time with Angling Lines and they were really good. Already booked another venue through them for 2025. Will definitely use again. Everything is so simple to book and taken care of, payment plan scheme and reminders etc.

General Comments:

A lovely lake in nice quiet surroundings and some hard fighting fish. The town is literally 2 minutes away, Pacy-Sur-Eure, and has everything you need from a Carrefour to an Aldi supermarket, to a pizza place and a kebab shop if you don't fancy cooking. Bruno is a really good guy, speaks excellent English, and was on hand or via phone for any advice or tips. Probably the biggest disappointment was that the fish congregate over the fair side of the lake, which unless you can cast over 100 yards or 30+ wraps then you will definitely need a bait boat and probably a 2nd battery!! Would we go again, yes, fab lake and great fish, but on the main proviso that the snags have been cleared. We chatted to Bruno about this and due to the heavy rain over the winter he has been unable to cut away lots of the snags on the far margin. Finally, the ducks were rather annoying, could easily wipe out your line but also they follow your bait boat out and then dive on your bait. Any pre-baited spots were being cleared within a few minutes as the ducks keep diving underneath the water!

Details of your catches:

23 carp caught over the week. 2 x 40 6 x 30 15 x 20 Biggest 45lb

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Fish based boilies worked best for us. Fishing the back margins caught the smaller fish with the bigger fish all coming out from open water, on the edge of gravel and silt. All types of baiting worked, but just boilie and pellet had the better fish.

Were the facilities what you expected?

Outstanding fishing facilities. Decent shower and toilet, be prepared to ride round to them though.

Were you happy with them?

Extremely.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

There are plenty of fish to be caught, but having a good degree of angling ability is needed. Simply turning up and expecting to catch fish with casting anywhere will not work. A bait bot will allow you to get to the far margins (33 wraps).

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Great service as per usual via Angling Lines.

General Comments:

Bruno , what can we say , what a guy , made you feel at home all week and whenever we needed advice or bait he was there , he genuinely wants you to have a good week and catch fish. Only criticism would be the snags on the far side , they need to be cleared , but dangerous they always dive for them and it’s fishing at range from that middle peg. Don’t forget your bait boats it’s a very wide lake and watch out for the ducks ?
