david1951 Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 I have lived over here 7 years having thought I was 1 of the best surface anglers in the 60's/70's in the UK, you just won't catch them off the top in France, trust me unless more anglers try you have no chance!!

mrs_rusheslake Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 20's and 30's been taken off the top, topped by a 34lb cat this week how unusual is that! There is a report on this forum from notcatching about surface fishing here from a couple of months ago. Just to add that the holiday was donated a few months ago so had nothing to do with recent events. Hope it raises much needed money for your charity Shaun & thanks for the kind comments.
