Lake Heritage
Availability 8 Anglers
Lake Heritage is a 17-acre lake set in a wonderfully relaxing location in Saint-Pardoux, Central France.
The current lake record is 68lb. There are at least 10 carp in the lake that are above 60lb. There are over thirty 50lbers, 150 40lbers and at least 500 20-39lb.
The lake owner has put a lot of work into Lake Heritage to make it the best fishery possible for anglers. They have created a stunning lake that retains its natural beauty but gives angler’s access to some of the best carp in France. The English bailiff Sean is on hand to offer any advice you may need.
Every swim at Lake Heritage can produce excellent results, if you are prepared to put in some hard work. With the right approach, multiple catches are easily achievable! The lake is lined with mature trees and overhanging bushes creating some excellent opportunities for stalking and margin fishing.
Surrounded by mature overhanging trees and acres of open countryside, lake Heritage has an average depth of 8ft with the deepest area around 14ft. The lake is weed free and the bottom is hard clay.
There are 15 posts which are well positioned around the lake to give ample water coverage.

Bookings in the off season (November 1st to March 31st) for exclusive lake booking is £800
