Dave L and Dave O returned for their third trip and brought Badger with them for his first. The week proved difficult on the fishing side and the guys waited a couple of days for their first run. Badger however upped the ante with his first fish of 32lbs and then delivered two PB’s in the space of 40 minutes. The first a very nice mirror of 43.4lbs, followed shortly after by a beautiful 55.12 mirror.

Dave L finally got into the action with two mid to high 20’s caught on Heron and Dave O saved a blank with a mirror of just under 24lbs – the smallest fish in Kingfisher. The guys have booked to come back in April and October 2018 and we look forward to seeing all three again on both trips.

Last week we reached a pretty important milestone for Puyravaud, when Jonny Robinson caught our 50th 50lb+ fish of the season. This represents a massive improvement from previous years and shows that our fish are healthy and growing!

The moment was made even more special by the fact that Jonny had family members with him and you know how we love family moments  at Puyravaud!!!!!

A difficult few days with very changeable weather from quite hot early on to rainy and cold towards the end. A disappointing result, but a PB for Andy for the second trip running.

Terry and Mark are becoming regular fixtures at Puyravaud having visited us at least twice for the last 6 years! On this visit they fished Heron and ended up with a very respectable 29 fish weighing in at 857lbs. Biggest fish was 43lbs and average weight a little under 30lbs.

Terry came with me on a hunt for some nice cognac (Frapin XO) and the guys also visited our favourite restaurant Grange Aux Oies to taste some of the regions best dishes.

The guys have booked twice for next year already and are looking forward to their next visit.

As we quickly march on through our 2017 season, we just wanted to give a big ‘shout out’ to all our returning customers, many of whom have visited us more than 6 times since we opened in 2010. This year just over 66% of all our bookings are from people who have visited Puyravaud before. Looking at confirmed 2018 bookings, that trend looks to be continuing and if anything slightly increasing.

Once again, a big thank you to all our regulars, Marion and I love having you back!

Here’s to seeing you all again soon!
