Oulenbac is an estate with 2 lakes, located in the east of France, in the department of Moselle. You will be immersed in luxuriant nature, with sumptuous landscapes. The swims are perfectly equipped and the carp are superb ! This jewel has not seen any anglers for over 30 years until its new owner opened it in 2020.
Oulenbac 1 is a 5-acre lake with 2 double swims. The lake is home to approximately 120 carp up to 46 lbs. Everything remains to be discovered on the lake and the first fishing tests have been more than promising. You will find a good proportion of carp between 25 and 35 lbs, with remarkably impressive grass carp. To your rods!
This 5-acre lake is suitable for a group of up to 4 anglers, providing each of you with sufficient fishing space. The bottom is mostly mud with a maximum depth of 2.80m.
The swims are gravelled and allow you to fish a large part of the lake without any problems. Oulenbac 1 has 2 double swims which will allow you to explore the entire lake. You can also rent the lake exclusively for a maximum of 4 anglers.
The Oulenbac lakes have not been fished for 30 years which has given the carp an incredible chance to develop in perfect conditions. Before the opening in 2020, a lot of tests were made to study the carp stock. The results were very satisfying, with an average of about 30lbs.
Above all, the fish are incredibly beautiful and most of them have never been caught, with a fighting spirit is at its peak! We estimate the stock of Oulenbac 1 at 120 carp for a current record of 47 lbs but everything remains to be discovered. You will also find many Grass Carp up to 48 lbs for memorable fights! Watch your rods carefully because the calm and Zen atmosphere of the place will be often disturbed by monstrous fights at Oulenbac 1.
In a house close to the lake, you will find a sanitary area with shower, toilet and washbasin and a kitchen area with fridge, freezer, sink, hob, table, chairs, deckchair and electric sockets.
Everything you need for your comfort!
Dry toilets will be available near all the gravel swims. Electricity will be available at each swim thanks to a small and very reliable solar system.
You will also be able to have pizza delivered very easily thanks to a partner restaurant of the lake. You just have to relax, enjoy the view, and catch the beautiful fish that reside in this mysterious place.
You will find a bait shop on site with a large choice of baits from Capriver and Blackdeere.
Less than 2 miles from the lake is the nearest town where you will find everything you need (supermarket, bakery, doctor, bar, restaurant, etc). You will be able to get pizzas delivered quickly. Don't hesitate to ask for the map on arrival.
