Description

Most English anglers who go to France, tend to fish on commercial lakes that are heavily stocked, but quite highly pressured, and most, if not all of the fish are known. Many anglers enjoy fishing these lakes, and they certainly do fulfil a need, but these are not the type of venues that Steve enjoys.
Just imagine fishing on a lake where you are the only angler there. The surroundings are beautiful and the stock of carp is not known. When the bite alarm sounds, you have no idea how big the carp is that you have just hooked. This type of fishing is just so exciting, and really is the stuff of dreams.
Surprisingly, these lakes can be fished by anyone who is willing to put in a little bit of effort to find them, and at a fraction of the cost of the more heavily fished commercial venues.
In this book Steve tells of all the highs and lows in what was an incredible year spent fishing on some of these lakes.
A fascinating read.
