Avoid at all costs....

Had a terrible experience with them

Money grabbing owners who have no regard to the difficulties of their customers.

Best advice is go somewhere else, avoid these tyrants at any costs..

I have fished both lakes and would not hesitate go back, very clean, organised, good stock, good swims and on site facilities are superb in my opinion. Clearly others for whatever reason have a different opinion/experience but all our trips have been very good, cant fault the place. Post #4 who is entitled to his opinion is way off the mark in our experience, and no I have no connection to the lakes or the owners at all. Just go for it.

I fished lake 1 back in 2012. Lovely lake and the owners were fine.

Fished on Vallee 1 around 10 years ago, me and a mate had 1 fish each, my mate hooked into a big cat and destroyed him. The owner was Mark then and assume the same now, he was a money man and had a bad reputation i think he had Frank Warwick or Dave Lane in to try and get the lake publicized. It was a nice looking lake, it had loads of dutch on and we all know how much they drink Stubbies for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. We did notice then alot of the lake captures on a different lake based on the trees in the back ground, its nice and close to the channel and a real easy drive. i think if it was good you would hear about it more.

The reason you don't get replies is when someone comes on and says it's one to avoid you then get people with only a few posts (ie unknown) coming and state it is a brilliant well run place, then vanish when challenged.

I used to answer in the negative after a horror trip some years ago hoping to warn people off from parting with hard earned money for a crap experience..

As far as I know I'm the only person to ever put up pictures on here of fish caught from Vallee but I still got trolled by low post posters saying I'm only slating it because I didn't catch anything. I had around 15 fish to mid 40lb and the lake is beautiful. Would I go back - never. Quite simply it's the owner.

Edit: just noticed this isn't a very current thread but I'll leave it on to warn people.
Are you sure?
