First 2 fish of this carp fishing session -- DON'T MISS the last 30 seconds! Mark was on his first fishing holiday at Beausoleil in March 2013 and had plenty of fun. Visit http://www.frenchcarpandcats.com/ for more carp fishing videos.
Mark caught this very distinctive 30lb mirror carp called "The Football" at 33lbs at Beausoleil carp lake in France. This carp was caught last November at 31lb 8oz so it's been feeding well during the winter on top quality high protein pellets. Mark targeted a specific marginal spot under a fir tree on the island margin which is an area well known for producing fish. The carp was caught on 2 x 20mm Blue Oyster boilies on a 10'' braided rig and a 3.5oz inline lead. Mark then went on to catch 4 more carp during his week-long session at Lake Beausoleil which will feature in another video.
With current lake records standing at 50lb for carp and 95lb for catfish, Beausoleil is an amazing carp fishing holiday destination. The 4 acre fishing lake offers a large number of both marginal and open water features and stocked with big carp (common, mirror, grass carp) and monster catfish. This unique carp fishing lake continues to attract big-fish anglers and their families whose aim is to catch specimen fish and big carp in peaceful surroundings, with their own private fishing lodge, and nestled in one the most beautiful areas of North West France.
