To be honest over the week we tried several different rigs and bait etc. We ended up on the villefond rig mainly with pop ups or fake corn in several colours.

Were the facilities what you expected?

They were exactly what you need for a drive and survive. A hot shower, toilet, charging for phones and ice packs available daily.

Were you happy with them?

Yes

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes but would say you have to be prepared for a challenge.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes definitely.

Details of your catches:

Very difficult week. 28Lb common within 20 minutes of putting rods in then nothing until packing up when I had a 33Lb Mirror

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Impossible to say.

Were the facilities what you expected?

No, they were worse than we expected. Not even a fridge that worked, although to be fair to John & Debbie, they did bring freezer packs each day for the coolbox to try to keep food and drinks cool. They also took my baitboat batteries home each night to recharge them.

*Angling Lines note* We fully appreciate that the facilities at Villefond are basic, we apologise that the fridge in the mobile home was out of order during this week.

Were you happy with them?

Not entirely no. We knew that the facilities were basic to say the least but as John himself described them as primitive, I think that that says it all.

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

The facilities, definitely not. The lake was lovely but the fishing on this week was too hard to tell.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

I have always recommended Angling Lines but was disappointed to get incorrect travel directions. Luckily. a lovely French Lady knew where the lake was and got her car out of the garage and drove there with us following on. She was a star.

*Angling Lines note* We followed this up with the customer and the directions supplied were correct.

General Comments:

Not a great week by any means, but more than made up the next week at a different angling lines water.
