What a fantastic week weve had with Aaron, Ben, Justin, Charlie + family and friends. The guys had 30 fish out over both lakes with a couple of 60’s and 4 new PB’s. The kids all played together lovely and didnt leave the pool. They loved the cast in a bucket game with George, Rosie and Emilia all hitting the spot. Thanks for a lovely week guys, we look forward to seeing you hopefully next year.

To all our wonderful customers and friends,

Marion and I have made the very difficult decision to move on to the next phase of our lives and sell Puyravaud.

Over the last couple of years, we have been looking for the right family to come in and take over what is a very special place to us.  It needed to be someone special, who would continue to run the business whilst developing Puyravaud further into one of France’s top carp fishing venues with accommodation.

We are very pleased to introduce you to the new owners, Steve and Kelly Rothberg, their children Bella and Emelia, and their beautiful German Shepherd Luna.  The whole family are keen carp anglers.

Last week they moved into Puyravaud and are currently busy settling in, whilst preparing for their first busy season.

For all those of you with confirmed bookings, please rest assured that these are still in place and full details have been passed over to Steve and Kelly. They intend to continue all the services you are used to from us including gear hire, airport runs, food and bait provision and are already looking at ways to improve what Puyravaud has to offer.

We will be closely involved in the handover to ensure the smooth transition to Steve and Kelly. It is very refreshing for us to see the enthusiasm shown by them as they settle into their new lives and plan to make their first season a great success.

Steve and Kelly will obviously be in touch with each of you in the next few weeks and as your holidays approach.  They will of course be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Marion and I would like to thank all our customers, past, present, and future, for helping us make Puyravaud a ‘go to’ carp fishing destination in France.  We have had a fantastic 17 years and met some wonderful friends along the way. The memories will be with us for the rest of our lives!

Thank you all  and please see Steve and Kelly’s contact details below.

Peter and Marion

Sometimes, things just come together naturally………..like when Ryan was fishing Kingfisher Lake, waiting for his next bite and just happened to have his phone in his hand when one of our regular visitors decided to land on his rod!

A few seconds later this beautiful shot was in the can…….so to speak! Quickly followed by a second visit and a rare double shot on the rods.

Well done Ryan, you were also spot on when it came to catching fish, landing some nice specimens including your new PB of 59.8lbs!!!!!!!!

Please note that from 12th August 2022 our boilie prices have gone up to 14 euros per kilo. Unfortunately, our supplier is passing on their material cost increases to us and we have to do the same. The cost of transporting all the boilie ingredients has obviously gone up at the same time and made this price increase necessary. The price of a 5kg bag of boilies will be 70 euros.
