I have fished it but I doubt your looking at going anytime soon now with the new lockdown in France?

The owners JP and Delphine are great people probably the most accommodating French owners I've come across, they have a new lake coming online soon nothing like the 66 acres Chateliers is but it will be one to watch more aimed at a small group of 3 anglers maximum but still a reasonable amount of water at a reasonable price the carp have been in their being fed on for a few years now.
JP took an hour or two out the one afternoon and also showed our group around his fish farm he has a very sustainable supply of carp coming on, he basically works a very good job and Delphine does most of the day to day running on the fishery but they are following their dream and hopefully soon he can retire to the life full time.

Anyway back to the main lake pegs 1 & 2, have the easiest access 8, 9, 10 & 11 you can walk back to the facilities and delphine will ferry your gear on the quad and trailer, the rest of the swims is by boat with all your kit, 4, 5, 8, 1 and 11 probably have the best features 5 the most amount of water the bottom is pretty choddy/silty (some quite deep) not a lot to find really you are fishing to features such as the pads and great big granite mounds some are above the waterline and easily visible others submerged, there are clearer less silty areas but the fish don't seem to mind anyway they feed all over, I would say 4 and 8 are pretty favourable swims at the end of each arm with the pads they always tend to hold up around those swims in numbers although they get caught from all over really, 11 fishes well against the dam wall if the carp are up there.

If you want to know anything specific or any swim in a bit more detail just ask.
