Location & Stock
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 and a
small stock lake of approximately 3/4 acres.
The Main Lake is stocked with 500 plus Mirror / Common / Leather and Grass Carp of 20lb, 30lb, 40lb, 50lbs - with larger carp up to 70lbs. There are two Cats over 80lbs. There are also Pike to 25lbs, Tench, Roach and Rudd providing a well balanced fishery. The small lake is teeming with small carp up to 12lbs which can be fished for using float tackle should you so wish.
Swims & Fishing
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 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.
