TESTIMONIALS
Date: May 03, 2025
Name: John & Chris Harvey, Andy Farr, Rob Mercer.
Catches: 4 Carp to 37lb 10oz.
No of Anglers: 4
Tactics: Nothing seem to work.
General Comments: Unfortunately the fishing this year on our holiday was a "non event". We arrived to the carp spawning on Saturday as a result of freakish high temperatures at the end of April. Then there was a massive change in weather which resulted in 25 degrees shift in air temperatures, we literally had northerly easterly winds all week + it felt very very cold. Carp were moody & did not feed all week. 2 anglers out of group managed to catch (John 1) + (Chris 3). Never happened before!! We made the best of the week, good company + excellent food as always & we had some laughs!!
Always good to return to Genets & seeing Heather & Larry who are great people + fantastic hosts!
Au revoir! A bientot! x
