    Lake

    The Goncourt complex is a carp angler's paradise. Lake Mesange is a 14-acre gravel pit that has not been fished for many years.

    In 2023, two comfortable lodges were built at Lake Mésange. The two dwellings face each other, with an island in between. This allows anglers to enjoy their holiday in complete privacy. The fishing areas are naturally separated by the island. Each fishing area offers enough space for 2 anglers.

    The lake is up to 2.5 metres deep and features a host of interesting lake-bed structures. The island is an absolute hot spot, and fish often pass by. There are also interesting areas in the open water. The gravel banks and sea-grass beds are also good places for catches. The banks should be kept in mind, as many fish will often stay very close to the bank.

    Fish

    Are you an experienced carp angler looking for a new challenge? Then Lac Mésange is the place for you.

    This 14-acre lake is home to a varied and balanced carp population. The fish were introduced over many years by the grandfather of the owner, Lucie. The current population is estimated at around 400 carp, some of which reach impressive sizes.

    The carp in Mésange lake are in excellent health and are virtually free of capture-damage. They are strong and respond well to feeding, which is promising for their future growth. Most of the carp have never been fished and are quite wild in their behaviour, which can sometimes make fishing more difficult. You'll need to develop a good strategy and pinpoint where the fish are.

    If you're prepared to be patient and strategic, Mésange Lake will certainly compensate your efforts. You'll have the chance to catch some really big carp, and even some which are exceptional in terms of both weight and scale. With an average of over 25lbs and fish up to 58lbs, including many 40+, Mesange has some amazing surprises in store for you.

    Description

    The two fishing swims offer accommodation right on the edge of the lake (separated by the island and therefore not overlooked). At swim 1, there is a chalet, with a covered veranda, on the east side of the lake. It sleeps up to 4 people, with a maximum split of 2 anglers and 2 non-anglers. The chalet is fully equipped, including a kitchenette with a 4-burner gas cooker, a large fridge-freezer, and a microwave oven. Facilities include a toilet and separate shower. In addition, the chalet has two bedrooms: one with a double bed and the other with two single beds. Both bedrooms have ample wardrobe space for storing belongings and clothes.

    The cottage on swim 2 is on the west side of the lake and can accommodate up to 5 people, with a maximum of 2 anglers and 3 non-anglers. It is equipped with all mod-cons, including a kitchenette with induction hob, large fridge-freezer and dishwasher. It also has a well-equipped bathroom and two bedrooms. One bedroom, with double bed, is on the ground floor, while upstairs there are three single beds. The house also has Wi-Fi access. A covered veranda in front of the house offers a magnificent view of the lake.

    Every Friday evening you can order pizzas and every morning, you can reserve freshly baked croissants pain au chocolat baguette to get the day off to a good start.
