Next up came Alan with 32 fish to 637 lbs and a pb Common at 28.10 well done that man.And last but not least came John, unfortunately only fished for 4 days but managed to catch carp to a total wieght of 414 lbs at 19 fish . that'll earn you guys four smiley faces well done we all had a great week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyrebel Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 And what a week it was, i'm still buzzing, hospitality 100%, food 100%, fishing 100%, and the lake is even better than it looks on the website!!.I went over to daz's place today and he's still got that big smile plastered across his mush and i think it will be there till next april, a little correction to the catch report tho, 23 carp 1 tench for 495lb , pete say's it's the most enjoyable weeks fishing he's had in france but i think that's something we all agreed on. Thank's again Eddy and Val for a brilliant 5 star week, i can't wait till next year, take care u 2. and that little lot earns u 2, 1m of these smiling little chinese men.

cromusdomus Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 this is alan what a week it was eddy and val are stars they are a really caring couple who cant do enough for you. food was great, fishing was out of this world. where in france can you go and get nearly a hundred twenties out to four blokes in a week most being mid to upper twenties at that plus a few thirties thrown in for good measure. also must mention this. my mate john was taken ill during our trip and had to spend a few days in the hospital. eddy and val rang up every day to see how he was and took me their to see him. made him sarnies and took em to him then fetched him out so we could carry on fishing thats what i call ten star treatment many thanks again eddy and val for a super week cant wait to get back next year. any of you looking for a place to fish in france with loads of hard fighting fish i can highly recommend genesis.

dazmondo Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 hi Eddy n Val, just joined carp.com. just coming down off the ceiling now. thanks again for a great weeks fishing and eating! i'd recomend to anybody wanting to fish france to try 'Genesis' it's truly awesome, like Al said where can you go and bank over 100- 20's plus 30's in a week? also if you go have the food package Val is an amazing cook!!! Can't wait till nxt year,might try an beat my record of 72 thats if my arms hold out!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyrebel Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Hello Val and Eddy, the guy i work with is Carl but the guy thats booked is Mick, i think , anyway it's the 17th of sept that they are coming over.Iv'e been trying to work the finances out to come with them, but sadly can't manage it .The work just aint here for us yet , so i'll just have to wait while april .I'm keeping fine now, thanks for asking. Alans just phoned and said that he'd spoke to you earlier, to confirm our booking for next year, so that's took the sting outa not being able to manage sept( ive just got to put up with the constant reminders at work now!). I'm sure that 40's on it's way, maybe 2 or 3 even. Keep up the good work and take it easy u 2. best regards ....john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
