The Stock

Etang du Vivier is a carp fishing holiday venue heavily stocked with specimen carp which range from upper doubles to fifties, many of the carp have put on tremendous growth rates over the years and the average weight increased year by year. The carp have been sourced by a local fish farmer and are deep bodied, high backed and fast growing, with most packing on substantial weight gains each year, they are mainly mirrors with the odd common. The lake is classed as a productive water if you get your baiting right as there are phenomenal amounts of twenties and thirties present and a good head of forties, and a scattering of fities too, so expect plenty of arm aching action, just check the catch reports and captors blogs and you’ll see what a productive fishery Etang du Vivier can be.

As well as the carp there are also a large head of wels catfish present which are also gaining weight fast, they range from doubles to 132lb with a good number in the 40lb and 80lb bracket, if you latch into one of the biggies expect a long fight on your hands.

Catches of over 3000lb of carp each week are common with average fish weights well into the high twenties to thirties so if you are looking for an action packed carp fishing holiday look no further.

We advise taking quite a bit of bait with you, (minimum 20 kilo of boilies plus a sack of particle/pellet per angler) as the large head of carp have a very healthy appetite and can devour small patches of bait in minutes.
