Etang Brigueuil have just taken delivery of another 33 carp between 8 and 14 kg (17lb to 30lb approx.) in excellent condition, never been hooked before, with an average weight of 10kg (22lb). Coming from a much poorer lake than theres, in terms of available food, they are very likely to gain weight very quickly. So they will soon be joining the others on the photo board which is looking very impressive indeed. Another 20 are expected in January of similar size and quality…. Watch this space for more details
There biggest carp this season was caught by Roger, a Jersey resident, weighing in at just over 20kg (44lb). This was the first time this fish had been caught and put up a tremendous fight for Roger who spent a fabulous 11 days here with us. He also landed a perfect common at 15kg or 33lb and another mirror of 34lb to name just the biggest. All in all, a great weeks fishing.
Our French guests have also had some considerable success with 2 fish out at over 19kg (41.8lb), and several between 17 and 18.5kg (37-39lb) beating some personal bests. And all this in there first year, fantastic. |
