Highlights

Overview

In the Champagne region, less than 3 hours from Calais, is Grand Tarnauds, a magnificent 9-acre gravel pit. The owner has been working on the estate for over 2 years to bring you optimal fishing conditions. Judge for yourself: each swim has a log cabin with all comforts, including 2 double bed, kitchen, electricity, shower,.... Gravel swims allow you to explore the lake's many hot spots with beautiful fish ready to fight.

The lake already had a satisfactory carp stock with several magnificent fish. To give you even better chances of catches, the fish-farmer owner, has realised an impressive stocking of 250 carp of up to 55 lbs. To that, add two sturgeons up to 92 lbs and a catfish of 140 lbs (2m) and you have a lake well worth discovering.

Lake

With a surface area of 9 acres, Grand Tarnauds has everything an angler is looking for. Comfort, of course, with carefully designed, gravel fishing swims and log cabins. But, also, depths which vary regularly and very marked hot spots all over the lake (relief, flat, hard or muddy areas, variations in depth). There is something for everyone!

The lake is thus composed of 2 double swims with log cabin on each for a maximum of 4 anglers. You can also rent the lake exclusively with the 2 log cabins.

Fish

This lake has been fished very little since its creation 20 years ago. The original stock has therefore had time to grow serenely. The stock was already very interesting, with some stunning fish between 35 and 55 lbs, which have since grown even bigger. There are some nice surprises lurking around here, that's for sure!

The owner, a fish-farmer, wanted every angler to have the best opportunity of catching fish. To that end, he added 250 carp between 15 and 42 lbs. Now the average is around 30 lbs and even if it's not a pure runs water you can easily get runs. The first catch reports count many catches above 35 lbs.

Also note the presence of a huge catfish of 2m (140 lb) , and two sturgeon (up to 92 lb) . Get ready for some intense fighting! On the carp side, the record is set at 55 lbs but everything leads us to believe that it will soon be beaten! Maybe by you ...
