One worth looking at is Etang du grand pre. Italian owners Lorenzo and Gaia, they do free transfers between the lake and Limoges airport, food packages and tackle. Cracking stock of carp and during the summer their appear to be 3 flights a week between Limoges and Bristol airport.

This is a copy of the email Brittany ferries sent me at the end of October.

I'm writing today to let you know about some upcoming changes to Club Voyage.

As you'll know, trading conditions worldwide have been challenging to say the least; we've felt their impact and I'm sure many of you have too. I'm pleased to confirm that after much deliberation, there will be no increase in membership fees for another year.

Whilst thinking about how best to move forward with Club Voyage, we've also taken the difficult decision to withdraw the Friends & Family rewards for new bookings from the 4th November 2024. Bookings made before this date will not be affected by this change.

I'm mindful this may be disappointing for some and in an effort to retain some goodwill, we're offering your guests, friends or family (who have recently enjoyed the outgoing discount) the chance to join the Club at a much reduced rate, details below.

As already posted below, Brittany ferries stopped doing the friends and family scheme on the 4th Nov. So it no longer exists.

Hi, has anyone on the forum used the Habec-tech tackle baiting pole, very similar to the Nash bushwhacker system but he'll of a lot cheaper.
I like the idea of being able to add extra sections but also concerned about the quality and longevity. Cheers.

Hi Ken.
I live in Brittany and the diesel price today in Central Brittany was 1,73 euros per litre. No queues at the pumps and no sign of shortages or panic buying.

Scruffs carp leads excellent choice of leads and coatings and a level of service that is second to none.

From the UK embassy site.
3. Can I travel through France to visit another country ?

Whatever your nationality, you are permitted to travel through France via the international zone of an airport (connecting between two flights) for a maximum of 24 hours.

If you are a European Union national, you are permitted to travel to your main residence, in France or another European Union country. Your partner (spouse, PACS partner, cohabiter) and your children are permitted to travel with you, whatever their nationality. At the border you will have to be capable of showing evidence of your main residence.

This is a translation for the federation de peche this week, it seems that night fishing is allowed as long as the sanitary and travel time rules are adhered to.

Travel exemption granted to recreational fishing!

After numerous requests and long-term work with the public authorities, the FNPF obtained, for recreational fishing, the extension of the movement limit, initially from 10 km, to 30 km in a department.

Now for the practice of individual fishing, you can:

Go to a fishing spot located 30 km from your residence.

The confinement of carp anglers at the water's edge is possible (subject to strict compliance with sanitary rules)

Rules to be observed:

Respect the 6 am to 7 pm time slot for your travels.

Bring your proof of address and the exceptional travel certificate by checking box 7 (Physical activity, outdoor activities, etc.).
Do not forget your fishing license, it is proof of your practice just like your equipment.
