That’s It For The 2018 Season!

12/11/2018

Our 2018 is now officially over!

Monday 12th November saw our last guests leave after a great weekend first trip to Puyravaud. The weather was changeable but warm and Matt and Gavin were able to bivvy up for the whole session and get 13 fish safely into the bank. Not a bad session considering the time of the year.

Looking back over the year, it has been our best year to date and challenging due the long hot weather that undoubtedly affected the fishing, particularly on Kingfisher Lake. That said, we have seen continued growth rates and new lake records for both lakes. We are now up to 57.4lbs on Heron and 63lbs on Kingfisher an increase of around 3lbs on each lake. Also, the number of 50’s caught this year increased from 55 to 67, a healthy increase of nearly 22%.

In 2019, we are virtually booked up to the level we are comfortable with, so we are opening our 2020 calendar for bookings. Please book early to avoid disappointment.

Thanks to everyone that booked and particularly our many returning guests that have helped us make Puyravaud what it is today. See you in 2019!

That’s it for the 2018 season, we will be back in Mid March 2019. Its been a pretty good season despite some stresses from the long hot, dry period. Overall, a very good year, particularly on Heron that yielded over double the number of 50’s compared to 2017 (26 in total). Kingfisher yielded 41 this year for a total of 67 across both lakes (55 in 2017). We had our first 60’s caught with our biggest fish weighing in at 63.0lbs.

We look forward to seeing new and existing customers at Puyravaud in 2019. All the best and thanks for your custom.
