When you fish our superb 7 acre carp lake which is set in 80 acres of unspoilt countryside, you are in for a real treat. It is situated in the Forêt de la Double and the rural setting means peace and tranquillity for you to enjoy your carp-fishing holiday.
We limit the number of anglers to 4 unless you wish to book the whole lake exclusively, in which case, a maximum of 6 anglers are allowed.
In addition to the original stock, we have added numerous individually selected carp which range from upper-doubles to 47lbs plus. There are lovely commons, mirrors, linear mirrors, fully plated mirrors and three leathers. There are also some koi carp which add a splash of colour and interest to the normal catch.
For the cat-fish boys there are cats to 55lbs plus.
The lake has a wealth of features to fish to including overhanging trees, gravelled areas, reeds and shallow, silted bays. The depth ranges from 3m at the dam to 0.5m at the top end where the reeds are.
On arrival Greg will show you the lake and point out all the swims and features, as well as suggesting the rigs and baits which are producing good results. This just leaves you to set yourself up for a superb and unforgetable fishing holiday.
There is a small rowing boat for your use and we have a bait boat for hire. We can also provide you with our own in-house carp pellet which is available in 4mm or 15mm at a cost of 3 Euros/kg, as well as prepared particle bait (maize and/or wheat) at 1.50 Euros/kg)
Accommodation is bivvy with the added bonus of a shared chalet and covered eating area. The chalet is equipped with cooking facilities, kettle and fridge. We provide tea, coffee, milk and sugar, or squash if you prefer. In the summer, we will make sure there is plenty of ice to keep your drinks cold and can provide extra freezer packs, if needed. For cooler months there is the added luxury of a heater.
There is a separate loo and summer shower room behind the chalet or further facilities are available at the house (including free wifi). We will also charge your phones, boat batteries etc, or you can use the solar charger in the chalet if you have a 'cigarette type' adaptor for your equipment.
