PB Drive & Survive

8 days


Map of France
Itinerary
 
Situated in the beautiful French countryside our exclusive carp lake is just waiting to be discovered by all truly dedicated carp anglers. It’s bursting with top quality carp, many in excess of 30lbs, and we just can’t wait to show it to you. So why not sign up and experience 8 days of “French Heaven”.
 
We will help plan your drive and survive with you, helping you as much as we can in your own expedition. You will be greeted at the gate by our on site Lake Escapes bailiff (Calvin) and given a tour of the lake, after which you choose your swim.
 
The site has full toilet (English) / shower facilities with a small tackle / gift shop that also sell basics, water etc. For that larger purchase the main shops are only a short distance away. All accommodation is bivvies as there is no other camping allowed on the lake, for your convenience we can loan you unhooking mats and nets, please request on booking.

Leave lake around 12.00pm
Most swims are excesable by car for tackle drop off, but must be returned to one of the car parks on site. Taking the food option also gives you a brew pack that includes (kettle, cool bag, mug, tea spoon, unlimited tea, coffee, sugar, and stove). Fishing commences as soon as you are ready and our bailiff will be on hand to give you his local knowledge to help get you started.
 
Our Lake Escape bailiff will be on site for your entire trip so help is close at hand, but from here in it is down to you. With over 11 tons of mirror, commons and leather carp just about to top the 60 pound mark and averaging 25 +, the next seven days of fishing is sure to be some of the best you will ever experience. Sleeping in bivvies right on your swim means you'll get to fish 24hrs a day, and not miss a single second of the action.
 
On the last day, you will be expected to leave the lake by 12.00pm, leaving your swim as you found it and returning all free loan tackle
