Carpediem Angling brings you to the heart of the Champagne-Ardennes region of France, close to the picturesque village of Robert Magny.

Surrounded on all sides by forest, the 22 acre estate comprises of two lakes - the Main Lake of 17 acres with 500 plus Mirror / Common / Leather and Grass Carp of 20lb, 30lb, 40lb, 50lbs - with larger carp up to 64lbs. There are two Cats over 72lbs. There are also Pike to 25lbs, Tench, Roach and Rudd providing a well balanced fishery. The small lake is 3/4 acre teeming with small carp up to 12lbs which can be fished for using float tackle should you so wish.

There are no Poisson-chats or Crayfish in our lakes!

Nineteen swims have been prepared, including five doubles and two suitable for disabled access. The maximum number of anglers per week is restricted to a maximum but, we try to keep numbers around twelve where possible, depending on demand. This will provide anglers with the opportunity to move swims should they wish to do so. Night fishing is allowed and no permits are required.

Radio controlled Bait Boats are welcome (please see our Fishery Rules for more information). We have two Microcat bait boats for hire at the lake. Inflatable boats, other types of personal craft and individual use of the lake boat are not permitted for insurance reasons. We provide a boat service for tackle delivery and collection to the far bank. During daylight hours hours, carpet and spot baiting can be undertaken by Mark as as requested.
