Very true mate. Those anglers on here who have been on the wrong end of deposits being lost/taken, i'm sure will not go to any of the lakes mentioned ..also, I doubt the many anglers seeing these issues will also go also go elsewhere..
What surprises me is, the fisheries, the owners, the issues, they have not come forward to disprove the information?? Why??? There have been quite a few with Domaine de la Ribière, and with Abbey to name but a handful. Checking on their FB, I see no proper announcement about their intentions during this lockdown, as far as necessary cancellations are concerned, it's like they pick & choose who to take for a ride..
But there you go, they are out there, be careful people!
And thank god we have a site like this where people can exchange facts!

I don't agree with the term witch hunt at all.
It's a forum, and sharing information, both good and bad is the point?? No?
Opinions differ, so I will always respect all views.

Wow, I'm really surprised at that! Do they think all the anglers on here, that see that are going to think they are fair?! What about the year after that? Is it worth booking something just to keep the coin??

That's hard a hard one to answer...
I'd say, 10-25 acres..
300+ fish
Drive and survive
Respected place
Mature lake and good facilities
You see by asking for the bad ones, it's much easier than asking for good ones, as they are so many good ones...! Elimination is easier
I'd still want to know which venues to avoid...

Me too, I guess...🤔
The genuine interested is to ask those that have had a bad experience..
Helping me especially, to find somewhere really accommodating, secure, great owners, really fair rules and reasonable numbers of good sized carp.!
Reading a fair bit lately, about fisheries showing their true colours when it comes to refunds during the lockdown, or deposits for future bookings..
but there is definitely a thread for that somewhere..
Anyway; any info would be good..
👍🏻

Yes, anything like this is helpful..
I just want to spend my hard earned money with great fisheries, not the ones that take you for a ride!
