The Old Mill - Carp Fishing in France
at an Affordable Price.
The Old Mill
is more than a drive and survive venue for Carp, Catfish and Pike fishing. With cooking and sleeping
facilities and also shower and toilet (see the accomodation page for full details), it offers great sport for anglers
of all ages. An excellent water for anyone who wants plenty of action, not just the odd big fish! Set in a peaceful,
rural location.
Open April to December inclusive. A five acre stream fed Lake with depths near the source
of three feet and at the dam end over twelve feet. The Lake is situated on private agricultural land so no permit is required
and night fishing is legal. At the shallow end the lake bed has a sandy bottom with large sandbanks along the far, tree-lined
margin and deeper pockets towards the near-side bank. The Lake then runs through a large lily bed in front of the cabin and
as the lake deepens towards the dam end the lake bed becomes silty.
Stocked in 2002 with over 100 fast growing Italian
strain Carp a few of which are now topping the 38 lb mark whilst the majority remain in the low to mid teens and
a few in the mid twenty bracket. All are hard fighting fish and a pleasure to catch. The lake also contains fifty
Catfish varying in size from mid teens to around 50 lbs . There is also a large head of Pike running to 20 lbs or more.
These now compliment the existing stock of Carp some of which in 2002 weighed in the low teens. The lake also contains plenty
of good sized Perch and Roach. NO poisson
chat!
The two main swims are situated either side of the lily pads and
close to the cabin. The swim to the left of the cabin has both a high and low water options and large bivvy area whilst
the swim to the right of the cabin is large enough to acommodate 2 bivies. Swim 3 is a generously sized double swim
on the far, tree-lined bank with deeper water in front of it. This is only accessible by boat (provided) as
it is a long walk around the dam over difficult terrain. Bait boats are permitted and indeed desireable for fishing the tree-lined
margins. English bailiff. N.B. Fishing is from the designated swims only. No fishing from the Dam Wall Arrival - no earlier than 2pm Departure
- by 10am please
