THE LAKE

Etang Les Burons is a 4.5 acre lake which is naturally stream fed and has been here since 1938. The Lake has many features consisting of two picturesque islands, an inlet from the stream, a monk and more.

The depth of the lake varies from the shallows where the carp love to sun bathe being 2 - 3 foot, to the old river bed that used to run through the lake that gets to 6 - 7 foot.

The lake bed also varies immensely from clay to gravel and even sandy spots, however carp can be caught from all of the spots above, so long as you use a suitable rig that presents itself properly. 

 

The stock:

There is a plethora of species in Etang Les Burons including but not limited to; carp, grass carp, tench, pike, zander, roach and perch. The reason for this is so we can have a fully self sufficient habitat where all of our fish get what they need to live healthily. This being said we will net the lake every 2-3 years to ensure the lake has a balanced biomass to maximise our fish health and growth. The other benefit of this is that we can remove any nuisance fish, as a result there are no bream, signal crayfish or poisson-chat in Etang Les Burons.

The carp in Etang Les Burons go up to 50Ib+ and come in all shapes and sizes. There is mirrors, commons, scaley's, linears, leathers, ghost carp, koi and grass carp that are all unique in there own way.
