Carp Fishing Lakes in France with 70lb Carp.

Lac Charmant has an impressive stock of big carp with roughly fifty 50’s, six 60’s and three 70lb+ carp.

Facilities & Information
Lac Charmant is an established big fish venue located near the city of Limoges in Southwest-Central France. The lake is 10 acres in size and has an average depth of 6ft with varying substrates across the lakebed. There are 9 spacious swims for anglers to choose from and a maximum of 6 anglers fishing during any given week, so there’s plenty of water per swim.

When the owner initially purchased the lake there was an estimated stock of 400 to 600 fish, including a mixture of mirrors, commons, leathers, linear and fully scaled carp. Some of the smaller carp under 35lb were removed and it’s fair to say the growth rates of the remaining stock have rocketed! The carp now have an impressive average weight of 40lb+, which is testament to the owners fishery management skills.

The facilities include constant hot water and two modern shower and toilet blocks. The bait freezer, electric, drinks cooler, microwave, electric kettle, and cutlery are all located in the anglers shed. On the rare occasion you’re struggling to get a bite you can always ask the advice of the fishery manager, who’s on site 24/7.

Within a very short distance is the village of Dournazac, offering a break from the fishing, shops for everyday basic needs and lots of beautiful places to visit.
