Etang de la Botte : Neil Clay party fishing on the 07/05/11

"Hi Sandrine, 

Please find the catch report for La Botte - w/c 7.5.11.  All weights in english pounds.
Total fish -  147         
Carp  -  125 including  30 x 30's to 39.12 (mirror)  (plus 2 x 39 commons) and 1 x 40.7 common                   
Cats  - 22 to 56.12 (albino)
Good venue with fish spread evenly, they had just about finished spawning so plenty of small hungry males but I think the big girls had either not yet finished spawning or were being pushed out. But all in all a good week with many pbs broken.
The one complaint we had was that the water when showering smelt stagnant so therefore was not a pleasant experience.
Thanks and regards

HML comment : We are sorry for the water. The water comes from a borehole completly rebuilt a year ago. However, we experience a big drought in France, and this probably explains the fact the water is not as usual.
