Vangsten en Reacties uit Frankrijk


Etang de Brigueuil

Hi All!

The season is now well under way, a mixed bag of weather hampering the proceedings a bit for everybody. No 2 weeks are the same at the moment. Last week was particularly wet with rain every day, most of it torrential. But it is the catch reports from last week that has prompted this newsletter, we just have to share this news with you all!

We were full from Saturday April 25th to Saturday 2nd May, Ireland v Holland this time. Holland occupied the chalet swim and 9, 10 and 11 and Ireland was on the opposite side on swims 1, 2, 4, 5, and 8 and of course Dan floating in between. Holland got off to a fantastic start and pulled a 46lb out of swim 9 (a PB for him on his first trip to France!) and on the same night a 45lb from swim 10. What followed was astounding. We are happy with every fish over 40lb, of course, but we were not expecting to see 8, yes eight, in a single week! Swim 11 produced 3 (2 at 40lb 11oz and 41lb13oz) , swim 4 another 45lb, swim 5 a 40lb and a 46lb on swim 7.

Unbelievable and our best week ever. Swim 8 had 46 runs and landed 34 fish, his first time in France and he now has a new PB of 35lb 3oz. Swim 9 also produced a 38lb 8 oz mirror and a 30lb grass carp so his first trip to France will be one he will never forget.

We are stocking top quality frozen boilies this year from Heathrow Baits, their Cranberry and Oyster, Superstench and Red Indians and Carp Company Icelandic Red Caviar and Cranberry and many of these fish have been caught with this bait including all of the Irish guys' fish as they flew in and hired tackle and bought bait on site. We have been selling them since the start of the season and, whether it is down to that or not, we have more than doubled the amount of 30's and 40's that we have had out this year compared to the same time last year. So we are very excited for the rest of the season. Hopefully spawning will soon be out of the way and we can relax and enjoy some sunshine. So to all of you that are coming back this year, safe trip and see you soon.

“We zijn net terug vanuit frankrijk (etang de brigueuil).
Wat een heerlijk water is dit om te vissen, we vingen er in totaal 26 met als zwaarste 19 kilo.
Ook Andy en Tracey zijn schatten van mensen en Dan de water expert een goede hulp met het bepalen van je stekken.
Alles zat deze week mee alleen het weer niet.
Ik zend wat foto's mee van de grootste vissen die we gevangen hebben. 
De gewichten zijn de titels van de foto's.
We willen hier over 2 jaar zeker weer naar toe als dan de kleinere vissen onde de 10 kilo deze grens ook zijn gepasseerd.
Je hebt weer een beauty van een water in je bestand staan!!!!
 
groeten,
Robert en Jasmine Hakvoort “

Chateau Moulin

Fishing was good and several carp over 40lb came out: 46.04lb and 50.04 lb. The own house bait “Chateau Moulin Fish Mix" is doing very well.

Domaine de Brocard

124 fish caught by 12 anglers. Biggest carp: 18kg, 3 x 19kg, 19,5kg, 2 x 21kg and 22 kg.

La Renarde

8 anglers pulled 50 fish out: 44 carp and 16 sturgeons. Biggest carp were: 3 x 15kg, 16kg and 17kg

La Horre

80 Carp caught including 23x40s, 7x50s up to 59lb 15oz (common) & a 64lb 8oz mirror. The biggest grass carp of the week was 57lb

Dag Martin,
 
We hebben vorige week op La Horre gevist en het ging moeilijk maar toch nog wat mooie graskarpers 
mogen vangen ondanks de slechte weersomstandigheden. Het is niet dé vis waar je voor gaat maar 
een gras van 47 pond is altijd welkom!! We wisten er ook nog van 30, 33 [2x] en eentje van 39 pond
te landen.
 
Ik denk ik stuur wat foto's van onze week naar jullie om te laten zien hoe heerlijk we hebben genoten.

Lac de Grosley

Good week at Grosley with 78 carp on the big lake and 57 carp on the small lake. Biggest carp on the big lake were 20,8kg and 8 fish between 16 and 19kg. The small lake was very productive with 9 carp over 15 kg and a new PB for Mr. de Ruyter with a 22,5kg fish for his birthday! Nice present… by the way this fish was caught in January 2008 and was 17,8kg…!

The restocking has a positive effect. Fishing is now more difficult, but the fish are much bigger now. Over all the anglers are happy.

Domaine de la Vallée

52 carp (19,5kgs, 19 kgs, 14kgs, 13kgs...) and 11 sturgeons

“beste thomas en martin

we hadden 5 vissen in totaal wat een beetje aan de magre kant was maar voor de rest een hele mooie week gehad hier een paar leuke foto's van een karper van 28 pond en een steur van 25 pond
met vriendelijke groet marco van Lenten”

Lac de Moisson

Several big fish came out on swims 3 and 10: oa 18.5kg, 16kg, 12kg ... A Frenchman caught last week a 26kg Moisson Carp. The fish are feeding during daytime, but we believe that this will change as the water temperature will rise… But at the moment the nights are calm.

“just come back from moisson, wonderful place great scenario
we have been unlucky with the weather because we arrived after a cold period and during the holiday another storm came in and the temperatures (air and water too) fell down. only 3 days and a half have been good for fishing (all carps taken from friday24 to monday27) the rest of the time the entire lake was completely blocked. i have talked with other anglers from france and poland and they didn't catch carps too. we all together landed many tenchs, 3 silurus glanis and 5 good fishes between 12 and 19,6kg, definetly not so good for 11days of fishing.... but not so bad for the first time in moisson anyway.” Marco, Italy
