Hi matt, have been to les saisons for the past three years with a couple of mates, the lake itself is very well set out and the swims are nicely done,Paul the owner is a real nice guy and very helpful, every time we went it was in September, most of the fish come from the far margin areas using baitboats , we all lost a few fish in the weed which is quite thick in parts,we all caught each time we have been but last year was poor compared to other times,had problems with the coypu taking the bait and biting through the line which was really frustrating to say the least! Soon as it gets dark They were every where,pegs 11/12/13 were good and 8 took the most fish most of us were on boiies over particles, Peg 1 has produced most of the biggest fish on this lake as it is a lot clearer with the inlet being at this end there are few pike in there too and some big grass carp but we never managed to catch one,over the three years we have been the best fish were 48.5/33/25/34/33/lb mirrors and a 39 and 2 36lb commons, it can be hard to fish,hope this helps any more info let me know Matt, tight lines,ade.

Hi mate, bin going to Saisons for a few years now. Nice little pit, had quite a few low 30s but only 1 40. A couple of my mates have had 40s out but most the fish are low 20's. Average between 5-10 each per week. The weed is bit of pain in the backside in the summer but its not chocked. The whole lake fishes alright as the fish move around a lot. As you can now fish off the island those swims have been the best for us the last few years. Most the fish have been caught about 4ft of the tree line. We caught most on bolies over a reasonable bed of spod. As the other reply said, peg 1 and 2 are shallower, so the rats go after your baitsp stik well clear. My mate had one bite through his bivvy and ate through his rusksack into his food while he was asleep. The vermin are everywhere as soon as it gets dark. I hung my net up in a tree and they ate a hole in it during the night. Also, take a load of bug spray coz in the summer you get eaten alive. I had all sorts in my bivvy, even with the mozzy net up and incense sticks burning. The near margin round by the bridge fished well the last two trips. We are going in July so will let you know how we get on.
