Fishing Holidays in France

France is an ideal setting to experience all that nature has to offer. The French countryside, wine, cuisine and laid back way of life attract people from all over the world. Many are drawn to the country by the romance of Paris, and the lush rolling pastures, cows grazing among the orchards...France almost shouts ‘slow down’ at the visitor – if it was ever to shout anything.  Despite an annual tourist invasion every year most of the contry remains largely untouched - an unspoilt paradise.

France has for many years now been the centre of European carp fishing, offering world renowned venues, with carp of over 80lbs, coupled with the atmosphere that only French carp fishing can offer. We offer group, guided fishing holdiays to various carefully selected fishing venues in France, including our very own Lake, which famously appeared in the Matt Hayes Lake Escapes TV series. This mature dream lake of around 24 acres is nestled deep within France's rolling countryside, with grassy banks boarded by tree lines. With over 11 tons of mirror, commons and leather carp just about to top the 60 pound mark and averaging 25 + this is sure to be one of France's up and coming waters.
