“We booked Lac Charmant on a lake exclusive and after all is said and done, I can’t fault it. What a week! The stamp of fish we caught was incredible. Collectively we had 31 fish, 7x 50’s to 56lb, 8x 40’s, the rest were high 30’s and a couple of 20’s. Looking back we all caught 2x 50’s each, which was a right result considering the rain was relentless this trip. I’d just like to say the owner couldn’t have been more accommodating and knowledgeable. He was very helpful and made himself available at all hours. He takes a decent picture too! The booking process with Carp Social was good, seamless actually. Highly recommended.”

“The kids loved the swimming pool, there were plenty of small fish in the lake to keep everyone occupied and the owners of Les Croix were lovely. We caught about half a dozen carp ranging from 6lb up to 42lb, which wasn’t bad going considering we only fished a few hours during the day. I’d say it’s exactly as you described it. Thanks to Carp Social for a wonderful family holiday!”

“We all thought Le Glandon was a beautiful looking lake. Unfortunately for us the fishing was not as good, we think mainly because of weather. We had a few decent fish. The owner and his family were great hosts, food was very good too. 6 hrs from Calais which flew past all motorway and was a very pleasant drive. Will defo be going back at some stage. Booking with Carp Social was very easy with great communication.“

“Well what can I say about Palm-Tree it was absolutely amazing. I lost count of the number of fish I caught. My first ever trip to Thailand and my first time ever fishing for big fish. The guides were amazing they really helped me. I caught lots of specimen fish including Aripaima to 180lb, Siamese carp to 200lb and another 2 Siamese carp over 100lb, lots of Redtails to 50lb and lots of other species to 50lb. The place is run very well and they can’t do enough for you. I’m definitely going to return next January. What an experience. I booked my trip through Carp Social, credit to them also. What a place this is!”

“I booked up the lake Lac Charmant with Carp Social and from start to finish the service was great. The lake was exactly what I was told and the people at the lake was more than helpful. Having fished in storms and rain for most the week it was still a great holiday having caught a 61lb and several others. I would definitely recommend Carp Social to all anglers. Thank you again for a great holiday an I’ll be booking my next trip asap.”

“This is the second year I have booked a two week fishing trip to France with Carp Social and this trip did not let me down. The hosts are both very nice people and very helpful with information about the lake which is a beautiful 2 acre lake with some stunning fish. Although I was there for two weeks I took my wife and granddaughter out during the day, so I only really fished for 9 days but managed 8 fish in total. The last two days of the trip the carp spawned again for the second time in a month but that’s carp fishing for you. The lake is difficult, not for the lazy fisherman and I highly recommend this venue.”

“The holiday was an amazing experience and easy to sort out thanks to the people at Carp Social and at Etang Du St Brice. We had 16 fish in total up to 25lb but didn’t seem to get any of the big girls this time around. We would recommend this lake and will book again.”

“Well what can I say!!! Several 40’s, biggest being 46lb 14oz common! Two PB’s for the group with the average fish weight being 30lb!. After a long journey and relaxing overnight stay at a local airbnb the night before, we arrived at the lake the next morning and were greeted by the bailiff who showed us around the lakes and facilities. The lake is just stunning, so well kept, facilities are amazing. The bailiff was so helpful and shared his knowledge with us helping us with productive known spots and supplying us with bait cooked fresh on site. Thank you so much for an amazing week. We will definitely be returning soon!”

Carp Fishing France with Carp Social.

Carp fishing socials and fishing holidays in France have been popular for a while. Ever since the early 90’s pioneer anglers such as Kevin Ellis and Steve Briggs have been travelling to the big French waters in search of even bigger carp. In those days carp fishing was in its infancy and carp fishing holidays abroad were endured only by a handful of anglers. Fast forward 20 odd years and it’s fair to say the majority of carp anglers experienced a carp fishing holiday abroad. Regardless of if you’re planning your first carp fishing holiday or if you’re a regular across the channel, we’ve got a selection of carp fishing holidays for you to choose from. From drive and survive carp fishing holiday in France to carp fishing holidays in France with accommodation or maybe a lake exclusive booking. There really is something for everyone!
