Lovely place - great pool. Fished short sessions (2-7pm only) tried off villa first
day, 2nd day from left hand bank behind island - 3 runs but did not connect with anything. Fished right hand bank at back of
lake by willow.
Boys had great time catching Roach - Rudd & Perch, they had an eel of 4lb and Nicholas caught his first
ever Carp.
Great Holiday hope to see you again

Chod rig in silt and running leads with bottom bait on gravel. Fished in day only. If you are a hardcore
angler start about 7pm and you can have fish all night. All fish caught from front by villa. Nice hard fighting fish,
coming back next year for the bigger ones.

Carp fishing France exclusive carp fishing holiday in france exclusive lake for perferct carp fishing in france. A carp angling holiday in
beautiful surroundings that everyone can enjoy karper vissene frankrijk
The majority of our anglers do not fish all day and all night, in fact very few fish through the night.
Sometimes the distraction of the swimming pool, the barbecue, the wine and general relaxation is just to hard to resist
