Contemplating a trip this time next year, so VERY interested to hear how you get on! Be lucky!

I've always just used my teeth. Think the only thing that didn't work with was the original Korda Hybrid - but soon found that was rubbish so wasn't a problem for long! (Korda presumably agreed as they replaced it with the soft and stiff!)

Any good ones that you'd recommend? Particularly interested in "runs-waters" - where you regularly get at least 10 runs a day and there are no carp under 30lbs, with the average being at least 50lbs. Preferrably no cats either - they stink. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info. Is there accomodation (lodge/cabin) there - as in somewhere to take the family?

Sounds interesting. How long a drive is it from the French ports?

I know what you mean mate, there are some shockers out there. You may want to have a look at Clearwater lakes - I think they advertise on here? I went there about 3 years ago (when it was run by Kev and Carol - now under new ownership). Although I fished the main lake (Spring Lake) I'd hired the cottage for the wife and little 'un. The cottage is absolutely spot-on - really nicely done out! (No pool though). Mill lake was always the runs water - max of two fishing it - and that's very close to the cottage - Spring lake is a fair bit further. I'm interested in the sort of venue you mention - let me know if you find anything please!

Just got a copy of Rob Maylin's latest....."One Last Cast". Worth a read I reckon fellas.
