Sounds like you did well in there then by all accounts it seems to have got worse as the seasons gone on in the bay, if I was to guess I'd say it must be the amount of bait going in whilst the fishing has been so slow. Literally mouldy boilies floating up from the bottom atm out there which is never a good sign.
I'm out there September as well mate, what week you back out?

Hmm not liking the sound of this one little bit. we have all the bay swims at the end of next month and it sounds like they're all fishing pants atm.

I wouldn't worry just yet mate, there's that many fish in parco it can change in an instant. I'd just be wary of putting in bait, especially in 16

Any up to date reports from anyone out there atm . Getting loads of conflicting feedback , most of it not good... 
Was out at Parco back at the beginning of may, followed on from the free spirit lads.
They had a really tough week symion bond said it was the worst week he had had in all his years there didn't put us in the greatest of confident moods seeing as it was our first time.
Week started off slow and for may the weather was **** for first few days rain at 1 point for 24hrs solid.
But that said we end the week on near 50 fish between 3 of us peg 1 (double) and peg 22, 2 60lb 3 58/59lb there rest mainly between 35 and 50lb
A leather which I'm told are rare out
And the mandatory surgeons 4 up to 65lb
We knew 2 other guys that were fishing there and they had fish to 60lb as well
Also met 1 guy out here again fish to 60lb
Worked out a awesome week for us may well have been lucky but the fish were defiantly there to be seen both visually in the bay (peg22) and crashing evening onwards most days
Booked up again for next year
Hope this helps a little giving people an idea of the place
1 thing to note as of 2020 the prices for both drive and survive and full lake bookings are going up quite considerably
All in all though a very memorable trip
Tight lines all

Fished there first week in June and rinsed it,I had over 100 fish out to high 60s and plenty of big back up fish,lads fishing opposite me struggled despite there baits landing close to mine.Get your tactics right and you won't go wrong ,theirs a massive head of big carp swimming around in Parco that's for sure.

Hi all.
Slight change of subject. Going in June without food package. First time on long foreign session. Was wondering what you did for food. Apparently there are shops/takeaways locally. Also weather can get very hot so how do you keep things (drinks, food, etc) cold for any length of time.
Thanks

sounds a great trip mate. Get a good cool box. use the search as there is a topic on them somewhere. Some of the boxes will keep Ice as Ice for days on end. just don't keep opening it up and let the cold escape.
I would get 2 boxes though one for food and one for drinks. But depending on space and budgets its up to you. I take it you are driving down there?
take some things already frozen for the first couple of days. Then when you pop out to the shops get some ice to keep it topped up and cool.
That will sort you out for a week.

Hi mate,
No need to worry about food. There are two supermarkets 10 minutes drive from the lake (one small, one big). You can also order a pizza from a lovely small local restaurant for just a few euros. Just let Antonio or a bailiff know what time and it will be waiting for you at the lodge.
Antonio also keeps his freezer stocked up with water, fizzy drinks and ice cream... I strongly recommend the frozen water at that time of year.
What peg are you in?
