david1951 Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Firstly I wish you all well for the 2009 season. This is a venue that I had not heard about before, though I have a few friends who have mentioned the venue to me and asked what I know about it (being a pioneer of France and trying to keep up to date on new commercial venues), but I couldn't help them as I don't know anybody that has been there to date!! I have had a look at the website tonight and I get the impression that this is a very new venue with virtually no past catch results, which is fair enough, better to say things the way they are, than exaggerated advertising and made up catch reports! As somebody who is always looking to fish new venues, in the absence of recommendations from my many friends who fish France, I first always look at websites and can easily identify the new venues desperate for business, this can't be said about Crystal Waters. I was a little disappointed though that there was not any information about the history of the lake and more information on the people running the lake, a lot of websites say "we have fished France so many times and been let down etc. etc", something again said on this website. Maybe it is my computer or slow connection (not being on Broadband) where I live, but I could only access views from a couple of the swims, must admit the lake looks nice. Final point and I am trying be constructive not critical, the prices are probably 10 - 15% over the norm on commercial fisheries in France which would be difficult for me to justify spending on a new and unproven venue! Maybe a little more work and information on the website would be beneficial. No offence intended, just an opinion!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
