Update on the fishing , 7th Sep

Here at villefond we had a few week gap in our bookings which was great to rest the fish and do some work around the lake.

We have built a new bridge and platform in swim 8 where we will be building a nice water side cabin. This will have heating and a couple of beds and a table and be well insulated so people can fish comfortably all year round right out the doors. But it means as a few people never posted feedback we haven't had any for awhile, we have posted some recently and lots of pictures .

The fishing was hard a few months back as the naturals were in full bloom and the carp spawned lots this year so were not aggressively feeding, I have added below a picture of a 36lb common I caught on a night known as little john... this fish is normally 50lb so you can see how much they have spawned! The fish was a massive head and a massive tail with no belly at all!

Great news recently the temperature has dropped as it was very hot and it has encouraged the fish to get more heavily on the bait to get their weight back on and they are doing exactly that, piling it back on fast. Even our sturgeon the shark-like captain Sherman has been making an appearance giving anglers a memorable & exciting experience!

Arnold made another appearance breaking the lake record last week by 4 ounces. He came out to a really nice guy who had only recently started carp fishing but was really keen and whos personal best before was a twenty something he caught earlier in the week. He spotted a feeding fish and cast to it producing a fish he will spend a long time trying to best at a massive 65.12 !!

Keep an eye out for new pictures and feedback as it comes in as this week we have two guys absolutely killing it with loads of big fish between them!

Jamie Clayton has landed 'Arnold' at 65lb 12oz. This elusive fish has a comparatively small head and immense set of shoulders, what a beast.

Stocking A New Species, 14th Apr

Here at lac du villefond we are excited to announce we have introduced a new species. A monster Sturgeon we have called Captain Sherman. He weights a whooping 60lb. We are only stocking the one but we know like all our fish he will grow even more massive fast.
