I can't wait for summer to come..

More gloomy wet weather this week, apart from a couple of days of patchy sunshine. Fear not, summer must be on it's way...mustn't it?!

Rouge

Three anglers took on the challenge of Rouge last week, for their first ever week in France, and managed some new PBs amongst otherwise hard fishing. One angler in particular was over the moon to have landed a 40lb Catfish, which he then promptly followed up with a 26lb Carp. A handful of Carp were all taken from the channels and lilies around the island, whilst the big Cat was banked in front of the chalet.

Vert

Vert produced a new PB 25lb Catfish for the family enjoying their first fishing trip to France, courtesy of Exclusive Angling Holidays. They also landed Carp to mid-doubles and lost several more. All the fish were taken on our Halibut pellets.

Bleu

Another family affair on Bleu, and again Exclusive Angling Holidays was able to provide the makings of a brilliant holiday. On the first night James banked a 65lb Catfish, to really start things off in style! This was followed by a series of smaller cats to 35lb until the Carp really began to feed. Our range of boilies accounted for the majority of the 35 fish banked, with a high percentage caught in the hours of darkness. Carp-wise, Bleu produced 4 twenties topped off with the first thirty of the season at 31lb!

Later in the week, Samantha hooked and landed the same 65lb Catfish, but even this monstrous fish was eclipsed by the lake record-equalling 94lb Catfish that Justin landed just before lunchtime on Wednesday...brilliant stuff!



Once again, thank you to all parties for leaving the lakes and caravans in a tidy and clean state - look forward to seeing you all again next year!
