Etang du Brionnais
Brionnais is a 12 acre lake set in the heart of the Burgundy countryside, probably one of the most beautiful regions of France. The lake has 15 pegs around it's perimeter with a maximum of 10 anglers at one time. The first 5 pegs on the west bank all have three star chalet accommodation . The chalet on peg five is specifically kitted out for the disabled angler , with ramp access to the unit and a purpose built platform equipped with fish handling and weighing apparatus.
This venue holds a remarkable head of very pretty fish all in immaculate condition, with a high average weight. Most of the carp are 20lb plus and there is a very good population of fish over 30lb, with a lake record of 47lb 4oz.
