Hi Gus, if you have not been to France before what do you consider to be big carp for some it maybe high 20's for other's it my be 60's or 70's or even bigger. What you have to look at is what you want with regards to big or small water, is distance a concern, do you want it exclusive there are many factors to consider. The best way to choose is by asking friends who have been away to places there is no substitute to recommendations. Adverts always look inviting that's what they are there for to draw you in but a personal view from someone you know who has been is always the best way forward. Hope you find what you want. All the best mate.
