Hi Gordon and Bernie how's the lake fishing any good catch reports.......
Cheers Glen

Myself and James just finishing off our week out with Bernie and Gordan.

I was 3 days waiting for a bite, fishing from the Rails, Tuesday then it woke up.

Had a 13lb at 10 in morn then a 28lb common at 9 that evening (my new pb)

then wednesday mornin just smashed all hopes!! Middle rod dropped back only by 2 inces and one beep on alarm.
Sat and watched... 1 min later rod tore off.... After an 55min battle i landed a unreal 53lb 3oz common!!!!

This a pic of same fish caught in feb - pics of my catch to follow

Then last nite a 19lb common again,

Fished Emerald Baits crab and cranberry and black pepper. Twice i've used these baits abroad and both times they did the biz!!

James has a 18lb and 25lb so far... he's bn snagged up a few times as he fishing v close to the margins.

Have to say lake is unreal! Bernie and Gordon couldnt do more! food, facilitys and craic is top class!

Great fishing mate! Happy days!

Good skills Trev! The pussy pull your wire a bit?!

a whole 60 yards. but i gave it a good beating then

Any more catch reports from here lads.......

Anyone know what this place is like and where do u fly into from Dublin? Any info would be much appreciated.

been there twice and enjoyed it. good head of fish up to 58lb. fly from waterford to lorient.

Has anyone on here fished it this year??? Is emerald baits still supplying them with bait if so maybe Naill could shed so light on how it's fishing to date.......
Dub ps how are things Naill

Yes I still am suplying them with bait, but I have not being in touch with them in a while so I dont know how it has being fishing.

myself and murph went last year,

1st time in france - i pulled out a 53lb4 and Murph had 55lb - enough said!

Bernie and Gordan are the soundest pair you'll meet

If your flying they will provide most of your gear for the week and grub too.....

def worth a look mate! you wont be disappointed

cheers lads sounds like a good spot. looking for somewhere that will give me a small chance of beating my pb of 44.08 but more importantly somewhere with some decent fishing and a nice place. My only concern is there seems to be very few decent hits of fish on this lake quantity wise from looking on this and another forum but at the same time most people seem to like the venue and there is a chance of a 50. Is this because it's quite a difficult venue or is it a low stock venue with some big fish. I probably have this wrong but will only be my 3rd trip to france and venue i wanted to book was booked up for next yr and want to be sure on venue choice before parting with my hard earned. pm's or replys most welcome.

its that time again france here we come.meself and billbert heading over on the 18 may,cant wait gordon ya better get them beers ready see ye soon

just back from Blavet Valley,

I had - 2 x 20lb, 1 x 24lb, 1 x 28lb & 2 x 32lb

Murph had - 1 x 18, 1 x 20, 1 x 26 & 1 x 34lb

weather wasnt great to be honest and because of this the lake hasnt really turned on yet,

but Bernie & Gordon were great hosts again, we've booked to go back again next year!!
