give L lake Nr Rainworth a try, its got a reasonable head of 20`s is open to day ticket anglers ( well, half of the lake is ) and the lake`s resident "Biggy" goes over 30lb, known as shoulders and is a bit of a eating machine. Last out middle of December as far as I know. OK to drop on now and then but not a place that I would want to spend to many hours. £15 for 24hrs max 2 rods only. Regards Madmickyoneleg.

I`ve recently been to have a look at a old gravel pit of about 60 acres, known locally as Dollar, lovely looking place and I`m definately gonna give it a whirl. Can anyone tell me anything about the place?

Lac de Montbel is a category 2 water and one of the few in the area where night fishing is allowed, there are restrictions however. You are not allowed to fish within the area of hydro-electric installations, and "the use of electrical equipment is restricted" I`m not sure if bait boats would fall into that category. Permits can be purchased from the many fishing/hunting suppliers. A day permit costing 10 euro`s, 30 euro`s for a holiday permit (15 consequitive days between June and September), 47 euro`s for a annual permit and 24 euro`s for a childs permit. You can find further information on the Aude/Ariege tourist info web site( French only) Try hitting the Google translate key. God luck. Regards Mick.
