Lac de Lion
Location: Limousin, Haute Vienne
Website: http://www.cbw.uk7.net/sites/fishing_france/index.htm
Description: Lac de Lion in South West France offers a quiet, relaxing environment to enjoy your fishing holiday. Stocked with carp and catfish over 50lb, these hard fighting fish are fast growing and we expect our first 60lb fish to be caught by 2007.
Lake: Lac de Lion is 5 acres in size, in a completely secluded setting in the Dordogne, surrounded by woodland and flat grassy banks, with swims around the whole lake allowing you to fish wherever you want. Free use of a rowing boat is provided for baiting up as required, with fish feeding well on beds of bait due to our feeding program. The lake ranges in depth from 5 metres to 1 metre, with the bottom made up of fine silt, sand and gravel. NO WEEDBEDS, CRAYFISH or POISSON CHAT, making it a very easy water to fish. The weather in this area of France is known for its hot summers and mild spring and autumn, leading to a longer fishing season and better growth rate for the fish.
There is a garage, bar, tabac and bakery 3 minutes from the lake, with the main town a further 5 minutes with a supermarket, pharmacy and usual shops.
Facilities: Approximately 10 metres from the edge of the lake, the chalet is a large block building providing a kitchen with full size cooker, fridge with small freezer compartment, sink with hot and cold water (all the water pumped from our well to the chalet and passed as drinkable). All your cooking utensils are provided, as well as crockery, cutlery etc. The bathroom has a flush toilet, basin and enclosed shower with a good flow of constant hot water. The seating area has a corner bench with table which seats 6, a futon which seats 4 and can be turned into a double bed, if you wanted to stay in the chalet. A wood burner is provided with wood for the cooler evenings. Outside there is an awning above the French doors leading out to the lake, a wood table and chairs seating 6 with parasol and a fixed BBQ, allowing you to BBQ while socializing at the table and fishing. Next to the chalet is a small grassed area with a football net for recreational purposes.
