Firs Lake is situated in at Ruille le Gravlais and is spring fed lake approximately 2 and a half acres in size. The lake is best suited to 3 anglers and has carp to over 40lbs and catfish to 60lbs. It is approximately 1 hour 30 minutes drive from St Malo, 2 hours from Caen and 5 hours from Calais.
The lake is set in a mature garden surrounded by well established laurel bushes and fir trees (hence the name!). The lake is accessible the whole way around so you are not limited to any particular area of the lake. There is also an island with overhanging trees and shrubs providing excellent cover for the fish.
The lake bed is mainly gravel with an average depth of between 5 and 6ft. There is a fairly high stocking density with carp going up to over 40lbs and catfish currently in excess of 60lbs!
Firs lake was stocked in 2007 with 80 carp ranging from 15lbs to 40lbs. A further 63 carp we added in 2011 with the largest being low 40s. The fishery owners are of the view that whilst you may not catch a world record carp, given the high stocking density you should have plenty of action making it an enjoyable fishing trip! Catfish to control silver fish and spawned fish have been added which are now reaching weights over 60lbs!
Included with the lake is a 3 bedroom cottage which included one double room and 2 twins room, one of which has a double sofa bed for larger parties. The cottage is within feet of lake and all 3 bedrooms overlook the lake. Downstairs there is a fully equipped galley style kitchen which includes gas cooker, microwave, fridge, freezer and washing machine. There is a dinning which has seating for up to 8 people. The cottage is south facing so gets plenty of sun. There is an outside patio which can be accessed through the kitchen. There is a well fitted bathroom and a separate toilet. There is a comfortable sitting room which includes free view sky tv, fireplace and music system if you want to relax and break from the fishing. Bed linen is provided but you will have to bring your own towels. There is a large storage cupboard which is ideal for storing fishing tackle.
Micro barbed or barbless hooks only
Minimum 15lb breaking strain line is recommended
