Any one fish this lake?
Any one fish this lake?
I'm there now, what would you like to know?
It's a really nice lake, no weed, well spaced out swims with really helpful and friendly owners. We've had fish to 53 this week but it's been slow. Biggest out this year has been a 59 mirror I think.

Just make sure you are aware of the rules.............
Initially I thought it would suit our group.........
Then we spotted the ' all unhooking and photies to be done in the water '.
Sadly age and agillity would prevent some of us getting up to put on our chesties at 2am.

Hello mate what is best bait and does lake have there own bait
There is a shower block with lots of red hot water and separate toilet block with English toilet. They do a food package but I haven't had it because I like to cook. There is a small town less than 10 minutes away with tabac, bakery, takeaways and 2 supermarkets.
They also provide unhooking matts, slings and carp care.
It's a really nice lake, fish are in very really good condition and looked after where possible, as such seem to be putting on good weight so a 60+ could be possible.

Any decent fishmeal works well but sticky krill gets used the most from what I understand

Unfortunately a few fish have been dropped on the bank over the years and the owners just have the fishes welfare and safety in mind.
It does seem a pain at first, and not everyone may be able to do it but handling the fish in the water is a good procedure in my eyes, when possible.

Exactly.
The one thing you try to avoid at all costs .......... going in.
I really do not understand it from a safety angle at all.
I also do not understand if you are expected to have the chesties on at all times ??
What happens to the fish, once in the landing net, whilst you are off changing ?

We went there last year, its a nice looking lake and the food was good but the owner was rude, the rules displayed on the web site arent clear, for example it says the leads must be able to drop off safely, this turned into the lead must drop on the take, we walked the lake with the owner, when we asked for advice he told us he wouldnt give us any stating that if he did and we didnt catch we would blame him, in the rules it says you must unhook the fish in the water, however it doesnt say that you must follow his step by step procedure which he stands on the bank watching you do, by the end of the week we had changed the name from lac rose to lacs fun.
One of the rules is you cant use running rigs so i set my rods up using a helicopter setup, when the owner checked my rigs before i started fishing he firstly tried to tell me i had set them up wrong, i disagreed with him at which point he went into his house and came out with the card that you get with Korda rigs showing you how to put them togther, after studying my rig against the card he realised that they were setup correctly so he changed his argument to tell me i couldnt use it because it was a running rig, i ended up having to setup all my rods again.
During one catch the owner accused me of bullying the fish as i simply held it from going into an area he has told us not to fish due to the amount of snags, this led to and argument bewteen us, when the argument finshed the owner started up his mower and cut the grass only in the area i was fishing scaring the fish away the swim.
We were also disapointed with the pellet, he doesnt sell halibut pellet or something you would normally use, instead you recieve horse pellets, i can purchase these locally for £6.50 for a 15kg sack, we were charged over £10.00 for a bucket that weighed no more than a kilo.
We all agreed the owner wasnt bothered if you catch as long as you put the bait in to feed his carp, half way through the week he posted on facebook the pictures of the 4 fish we had caught with a message underneath saying some of the fish caught this week, this to me implied more fish had been caught which was a lie, this explains why on the day we arrived he was so adamant we didn't speak with the anglers that were current on the lake, we've visited several different lakes in france and this is the first time we have said we wouldnt return.
