  1. Hi Fudgecat we are a little place called La Chaussee , Ciral , Lower Normandy. if you want more info have a look at www.genesis-carpfishery.com
  2. Hi footpath when you say nothing on it do you mean completly blank? as there is a couple of pics on there and a write up of catches for the past week ? It maybe that we had only just added it so had not written anything on there at that time . Shall be adding more as the week go's by with whats been caught this week , I can say that we have had 3 carp out from 33 to 34 lbs so far.(plus others)
  3. In the past 5 weeks since our opening this year we have had 24 anglers on the lake and we have also had some awful weather from frosts to plenty of rain, high winds and very cold. The fishing was very patchy to start , but now with the warmer weather things are improving day by day. 196 Carp have been banked with 107 from 10 lb to 20 lbs , 65 carp from 20 lbs to 30 lbs and 24 from 30 up to 37 lbs. Our best common to date came in at 37lbs and our lake record standing,a mirror at 38.5 lbs (so far)click on the link and see some of Genesis Carp from the past couple of yearshttp://photobucket.com/Genesislake
  4. Thank you John and a merry Christmas to you ,yes the knees doing ok thanks . wont be long now , you'll soon be back on the banks of Genesis looking forward to meeting the gang again.
  5. Hi Niall and Cromusdomus(Alan) we are looking forward to seeing you guys in April, without looking in the book I think Niall follows you Alan , so you may very well meet up . The knee has been done and I can tell you now " It dont arf urt" the doctor said it wouild be 300 € I said what about the tax he replied wont use tax we'll glue it on ,,,, ta da
  6. Hi Kim Iain how are you 2 doing it has been good this year for us, met great people and had a few laughs on the way. It was a good lazy summer day wasn't it . I think one that has to be repeated. Lets hope next season is a special one for all of us. Hi Gaz well we'll have the quiet but plenty of work to do around the lake so no rest just yet , maybe I'll let Val have a day off sometime in late December
  7. Well thats about it for us at Genesis lake for this season , with our last anglers leaving on the 8th October . As for the catches we've had during the past 7 months we have had 427 carp from 10 to 20 lbs ,545 20 to 25 lbs, 161 25 to 30 lbs and 58 30 to 38.11lbs banked .The year started with Darren , Alan, Pete and John back in April with an impressive (just under) 3 1/2 tons, the lions share going to Darren with 72 carp to mid thirties, that set a record. Another record was set during May with Gerard landing a 38 lb Mirror, well done that man. Things slowed a little in June/July with just 18 carp over 30 lbs being caught and 32 between 25 and 30 lbs . August was quiet with just two weeks booked and 8 anglers on the lake, still managed to bank 7 carp to the mid 30's 6 from 25 to 30lbs and 66 20 to 25's . September came with 5 to the mid 30's 22 to 25 /30lbs and 67 20 to 25 's. Now last year (2010) we had a German guy fishing the lake he then set a new record with a mirror carp of 36 lbs well he came again this year (same week) and done it again. 72 Carp 14 of which were over 30 and up to 38lb.11 oz we feel thats a great end to this season for us here at Genesis Lake , We would like to say well done to all those carp anglers who visited us and look forward to seeing you all again in the future. Best wishes to all from Eddy and Val ,,,O and Minyon the bivvy cat(mouser extraordinaire) A few pics of the Carp caught this year
