Caught carp from both swims. Nothing huge though. Water was still really high, higher than usual. 10 was unfishable with the levels, you would have had to sleep in a tree 😅
We was catching them from close in weed beds on the point between 8&9.
Only catfish when putting rods in deeper water or at range.

Cheers for that,..plenty of tree stumps, etc in 43,…so same old Chanty really. Only really Cornee that I haven’t fished,..so I guess I will soon find out. How did you get on in 8&9?

Hi
Quite a few stumps in the area, watch Samirs videos he did an October session in there

In reply to Post #250
Haven’t fished 43 myself so can’t answer the main question, however, have fished 8&9 at that time and water was still really high for the area. Localised weed beds for a bite and anything else you can find for a better one I would think.
Good luck.

Has anybody on here fished Post 43 on Cornee? Any words of wisdom or advice.

I was in 7 week before last. Last minute trip I booked.
Water still high as normal this time but was dropping nicely every day.
Had 2 carp , couple of cats and lost one. Weather was wind and rain all week which helped I think as speaking to a couple of anglers fishing had been difficult in the week or 2 before.

In reply to Post #242
Hi
You have to buy a carp fishing license for 80 euro plus a weekly national license or a yearly one. I think it’s about 34 euros a week or 85 euros for the year.
|
|
|
|
|
Ah ok I understand now, and the license you still get from the maison?
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #238
But for 2 week is 520 euro's. The licence you still have to pay.

One peg is 260 euro yhe deposite is 130. So if you paid the full amount the remaining is 110 for a lincence.

I’ve already paid €260 deposit with remaining €260 to be paid on the day of arrival at the Maison for the 2 weeks. Do I need to pay in addition to this?

The crays werent a problem last week, we had 3 cats all one meatbased baits.
Doesnt mather wich bait u use, the cats will have m.
Just use what your comfortable with.
Weather is more important, no wind is no carp.
Just had one carp last week, not even bad as there were only 2 carp caught the whole week on the main bassin.
30 degrees and no wind, than u can better stay at home..
The mozzies were also from hell, couldnt stay outside after 7 p.m.

Probably sick of all my questions on this thread lol, but about to place a bait order. Obviously taking tigers, but Is it worth avoiding fishmeals and oils because of the cats?
And presumably crayfish?

I’m in post 47, a friend of mine has fished it a lot and said that time of year some of the spots are no more than 20 yards.
I’m well used to the pike anglers, jet skis, boats etc as fished plenty of other public waters…. Found out the hard way once, was on Lac Amance on Bastille Day 🤦🏻♂️😂

In reply to Post #214
My advice for leads would be to take a full range from 3oz to 12oz and remember that occasionally you could easily be casting to your markers…it’s not always about boat work,etc. Also if you are fishing distance don’t get pissed off if the pike anglers, etc etc pick up your lines,..it is extremely annoying BUT by rights we shouldn’t be fishing in excess of 100 metres…although we all are guilty of doing it.

As long as its strong, you'll do fine..
Imo these fish arent as pressured as in the UK, so no need to camouflage..
Seen people catch fish on yellow flourencend braid.

In reply to Post #211
Hopefully you will hit it right. At the moment the weed in front of us & in the margins isn’t really a problem at all but we have got relatively deep water here so it could well be different on other posts that are shallower? Compared to previous years fishing this post the weed is definitely much reduced. Started catching some big tench now,(10 lbs plus), so the rigs & bait are working,…just waiting for the carp to turn up!!
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #209
We're over there in 2 weeks, hopefully as the weather is picking up fish have spawned in the main bassin. With high temperatures coming it could go fast..
How is the weed currently, as last year was horrible??
Good luck the coming week. You only need one bite to catch a fish of youre dreams in there.

In reply to Post #208
Hello m8. Currently on post 5,..been here a week and with a week left. The lake seems like it is behind for this time of year. Water seems colder than usual and the water level is rising just over a cm per 24 hours. The weather is just beginning to pick up so hopefully the water being pumped into the basin will push the water temperature up a little? The fish in the south basin have started spawning a couple of days ago. I am guessing that the main basin fish are still grouping up and getting ready to spawn?? I know the chaps fishing in 24 and 25 had nothing for last week,(ended today), lads on 26 & 27 had I think 6 carp which included a 42 lbs and a 33 lbs and a couple of small,(under 50 lbs), cats but their swim died off on Wednesday night onwards..I spoke with Slyvian,(guard du Pêcheur), and he said that up until Wednesday he had heard of nothing coming out of the main basin. Depending on when you are coming you could just be timing it right! As yet I have only had a tench and seen no evidence at all of carp!…but fingers crossed. Hopefully that will help a bit.

Thank you both for your advice, I’ve nailed it down to 3 options for a 2 week trip. What do you think best option is?
Option 1.
Swim 10 - 25.08
Swim 26 - 01.09
Option 2.
Swim 26 - 01.09
Swim 14 - 08.09
Option 3
Swim 47 - 05.08
Swim 26 - 11.08

Fished 9 August before last. Water was still really high, you wouldn't of been able to fish 10 unless you was right back in the woods.
We had a few from close in weed beds but i think they are proper autumn swims. mid september onwards.
Fished 10 last October, done OK considering 8&9 wasn't doing anything.

La bute is allways, good for some decent fish. Didnt knew it was open allready in august. But peg 37 is hard to book, because its a popular swim. Normally you have to fish far out on that peg, so goiod angling by your mate. Its also good to hear there's fish caught...

i have a pal currently there in peg 37. They have had a fair few up to nearly 25kg fishing in the margins either side in 6m water

In reply to Post #191
To be honest, i havent fished chanty in august. Mate of mine did well on 26 in august, not many fish but big ones, read 20 kilo +. This year the fishing is very hard on the south as well on the main bassin due the weed. Most pegs are unfishable, with your lines on top of the weed and tourist going threw lines in kayaks and boats. Also there's lots of rumours about fishs kills.im out in october but i dont expect a big haul to be honest...

The swims are closed due to the high waterlevels in spring. South and main are seperated. Only when water levels are very high they are connected. Peg 7 very snaggy. Peg 47 good fishing at reasonable range.

Have been last week mate - peg 27 - 34 carp and 3 cats between me and my girlfriend - nothing really massive but we had 4 fish over 40 pounder with 50 the bigest. Lost just one
Now it's time to have some rest in the work 🤣 of course coming again next year. If somebody didn't book swim for next year it will be really hard. 3 weeks ago I have grabed last good peg for south bassin at autumn, but whole lake was looking full. Anyway nice to hear that Big Girl still growing and it's in nice condition. Will be more nice if somebody add some photo. Spoke with Melanie, but guys don't want publish it

In reply to Post #160
So my friend done it wrong and land 80 pounder with 4 backleads from 450m range, plus many other fish from Der  two other friendsdoing same here with good results may you dont know long pole with hook at the end to grab your line from snags, but if not thats the first thing to have on your boat to fish at snaggy lakes

Peg 48 produces fish not at far range, as they swim by goinn in and at the bay.

In reply to Post #167
If you have the chance of dropping peg 24 and go in another peg sooner, dont hesitate. Peg 24 is a s... peg in september and a waste of time in mine opinion. You are blocked by anglers fishing from 25.

In reply to Post #166
10 is out on the Cornee and only accessible by boat - so if that's ok, I'd go there over 48.
1 & 2 on the North, fished 1 a couple of years ago and loved it, didn't catch anything big (although had plenty) the swim is full of features and I've no doubt theres some whoppers in there somewhere. 2 there is a youtube vid out there of a couple of big fish from this swim. Both easily accessible.

Oke, no tree stumps, a river bed in front of you that runs across.
Probably lots of weed, and tourist paddling about.
Lots of cats, if you use piles of fishmealboillies and if they are hungry, they eat anything.
Lots of mosquitos, and some shade to hide from the sun in august.
And hopefully if you got things right, some carp.
On youtube some movies of fishing on chanty, so you can see what you can expect.

In reply to Post #154
You can park the car, behind the bivvy.
No problem when you go out by boat at night.
Keep in mind that if you fish further out than 100 meters,
And yours lines get picked up by pike angles, stay polite
And don't make a fuss about. Or there is a chance they will
Inform the garde.

In reply to Post #153
Thank You mate - so like my friend said probably nobody stick to this rules - anyway Probaly in many swims 100m from your peg You can have two feets of water, so it doesn't have any sense
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #152
I’ve fished at 300+ yards whenever I’ve been and had no problem , i always tend to put my rods out in the afternoon when the boat traffic has calmed down a bit , certain swims especially. As far as using the boat at night I wasn’t even aware that was a rule and I’ve never had a problem doing it .
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #151
Guys, can You tell me how it is in practice withthis 100m rule ? As I know people fishing there even at 600m.
Other question - stick to the rules you shouldn't use a boat in the nightime - how it is in practice when You have bite and You need to use boat.
Definitely You can park your van at pegs 26 and 27.
Cheers

In reply to Post #148
Plenty of pegs free in august.
Why go for 14? At least take 50, so you can fish against the damwall.
Better take a try on the south, more chance in catching some fish.
|
|
|
|
I’m in 29 at the moment on main. Weather has been lovely for this time of year. Couple of hot days but then overcast and some real wind and storm, time it right and can get it bang on.
Hire boats have been ok, although keep your eye on them as they don’t understand the rules. The pike anglers have been ok, the odd ruthless one, I had to clap at one 20 metres off my tips till he put his head up! Part of these places though.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #148
Going to be hot 🥵
Margins are worth a shout, then just spread rods at various distances.
Campsite up road has showers, good restaurant that does take aways
Watch out in the day for pike anglers, school kids in dinghys and the hire boats.

Not sure if you've heard back but they are changing dates to another date this year, deposit transferred towards a swim next year but you still have to apply via email 1st July for pegs or a full refund!
To be honest i thought it would a ball ache to try and sort anything and was expecting to lose the deposit so fair play to them.
Currently moved my booking to later this year, if that still doesn't happen i will probably take a refund and then go in 1st July for what i want next year, i expect it to be a busy email day!

Post 33 sits on the end of the beach, if the weather is ok you will have the kids from the school out in little dinghys and the safety boat so make sure your lines are sunk. Weekend you’ll have an armada of pike anglers, dog walkers etc. You can walk to the swim from the sailing clubs car park.
There’s a big map of the lake in the Maison on the wall
Every trip to Chanty is an experience so go and enjoy yourself. 😂😂😂😂

Thanks for the info! Now seriously how far out?
|
|
|

In reply to Post #114
Are there any distinct features we need to be fishing to and how far out? 100m max
Is the peg snaggy? pretty baron
And are particles a no go with the cats and bream? I personally would stick to boilies and tigers
Is the water up or down in September? On its way down.
Also, can you drive down to the peg? yep

Hi all, it's our first time on chantecoq.
We are fishing 21 and 22 mid September.
Are there any distinct features we need to be fishing to and how far out? Is the peg snaggy? And are particles a no go with the cats and bream? Is the water up or down in September?
Any additional information would be greatly appreciated.
Also, can you drive down to the peg?

In reply to Post #112
That's a bit of a hard question to answer. Personally I would take plenty of stabilised\shelf-life boilie and dry tigers\peanuts. That way if it kicks off you have plenty in reserve and if it doesn't you can bring it back.
I would probably start with 1-2 kg per rod for the first day and take it from there. I normally find I'm baiting with just 2-3 scoops per rod once bites start.
So to get going I would be thinking of about 25kg of boilie and a big bucket of prepared tigers & peanuts and then dip into your reserve if need be.

Swim bookings open on July 1st for the following year if you want the reserve that far a head

In reply to Post #97
Swims have been available for booking for over 6 months and the good swims at the right time sell like hot cakes. You will unfortunately be left with what people don't want by booking at this time of year.
That doesn't necessarily mean its a lost cause though. Good luck.

Tbh mate there probbally is areas you could fish, we just didn't fancy it with the water so far up and fishing in a bog all week. (we just swapped pegs straight away)
The peg we ended up in had a bay to the left which was just as bad with weed top to bottom, I had a couple of rods in there all week just found a few clear spots, so I'm sure they will be areas

In reply to Post #74
Ben, when are you going?

In reply to Post #70
We was in 24 w/c 14th June. managed to just about fish it by fishing holes in weed but was very hard work retrieving and putting rods out.
Moved to 15 for the second week which was still weedy but easier than 24...the mozzies were 10 times worse though.
Other pair we was with were fishing 25 for the 2 weeks, when we moved one was casting 1 or 2 rods into 24 straight into the weed and had a couple!
I think you will struggle to clear a proper channel in the weed, the channel to the left in 25 is an old road which i guess stays clear all year round. Good luck on your trip

In reply to Post #72
thanks for the reply I fish in weed unto the surface in the uk with confidence but this sounds on another level surprised the fish haven't made clear areas in the weed on swim 31 will have to cross. our fingers for another available swim when we arrive then
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #71
Like you said once you get passed the weed bank its clear it was in 25 but 24 was like you said 31 was unfishable.
With the floods on the Seine they had stacked the water in the lake hence the high water levels peg 7 was 3.5m under water from normal, every where was the same and don't think its been fished much this year so far, they opened the out flow the Tuesday eve 2nd july and by Friday the water had dropped 0.4m probably back down and easier to get rods out now,we could only fish straight out due to been so far back into trees.
Still part of fishing just booked mine for 2020 and got 2 more trips there Sept and Oct this year I love the place,
Pete

In reply to Post #69
We took one look at 31 and moved pegs mate. weed was solid top to bottom all over that area. water was way up and had flood most of the peg out and the mozzis were another level in the woods.
The peg we moved to also had alot of weed close in after about 80 yards then it went. i used the motor a couple times all week easier to just row.
as for boats Pike anglers etc, i got cut of once by the speed boat that came just inside my marker and so did my mate. the guys to our right were getting picked up every day a couple of times a day by the pike and cat anglers.

In reply to Post #69
Was on south basin poste 25 1st week of July moved to peg 7 cos my friends in 24 couldn't fish at all due to weed.
Looked the same all round the south basin a bank of weed in 7-12 ft of water between 30-50 meters out 20-40 across so difficult for boats to get through with engine or oars. If the swim has been fished possibly a channel will be there like in 25.
Im back there 1st week Sept and will be taking ropes and chains to cut channels on 25 just in case but if anybody has 24 booked possibly unfishable this year.
We had no issues with swimmers boats but that is not usually a problem on there, the mozzies were really active, my mates had 400 plus bites between the 3 of them.
Hope info helps
Pete

In reply to Post #41
Mate if you're considering fishing chanty I'm pretty sure you must be experienced enough to know that if you can't get on fish 50kg is 50kg too much and if you're on numbers of fish 50kg might not last you 3 days.
You just need to take as much as you're comfortable taking buddy. Bulk it out with shelfies or take dry particle and cook it up on the bank if you're concerned about wastage. You can always bring that stuff home.

In reply to Post #33
I have been and seen the lake a few times, not my cup of tea, where do you start if you are an old school angler? Inland sea is the best way I can describe it and from the reports I have read over recent years , what is the real attraction?? A couple of 80lb ex Chanty fish removed and relocated in other venues, so far only 1 of them returned to where it belongs, but even after the commercial world carp masters comps nothing caught to inspire most people to fish there.

In reply to Post #29
Totally agree with Bumper Boy, it's for those experienced in boat work.
You need all the specialised gear including a decent boat, eletric engine, life jackets and fishfinder.
Even with all the correct gear it can still be hard work and you can be literally miles away from any fish.
I would start somewhere far less daunting!

Without sounding to condescending if you are asking those questions I'm not sure you appreciate the full magnitude of what you're taking on when you go to Chanty.

Hey guys.
Im looking on the internet about fishing rules and really cannot find anything about fishing distances. The only thing i found that it was alowed to bring your bait out with the boat on the maximum distance of 100m. Is that true ? I don't want to fish at 500m but im really interested if its so.
Where can i get a fishing license and where can i book a swim ?
Any, any information is appreciated.

In reply to Post #21
Spoke to sylvian com the Maison de peche and was informed that the average size of stockie in the south was 5kg and average size in the north is 10kg as they wanted to keep the average size higher in the north. Roy....placed my rods out on the gravel bar and pointed down towards 4 & 6.....less cats for me but my mate was plagued.
|
|
|

In reply to Post #20
Yeah, if each team fishes with 4 rods, than its possible because there all double swims.
But Like you Said, sharing it with another team could make things complicated😡😡.
I put my money on it that, the winner comes from south bassin.
There was plenty of Fish already on it, absoluty didn't need any new stockings.
Fact is one stupid competition is probably killing my session in October.
Or someone can give me a Great advice how to advoid catching little fish.
Big and hard baits are obvious..
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #19
They have put new fish in all parts of the lake, especially the south and north basin.
Can't see how the World carp cup is going to work as sharing a post with another team will be interesting plus who ever gets South Basin is going to clean up compared to the rest of the lake.
Maybe someone might get lucky
Also heard that the North basin is solid with weed ?
Good Luck

Oke swim 25, allso a Well known swim for the cats.
Its one of the most fished swims on south, the cats seem to know that al lot of bait Goes in.
The last couple of years we've only using boillies with a spicy bite, the result more than 200 carp and 1 cat.
The cats i'm not so afraid of, its the small stockies that worry me, did you caught a lot of them?
Its pretty f.... Up that they put new fish on south basin, mostly because of the weight of the Older carp were increading rappidly over the last few years.
The fish from the previous stocking are Turing in to real wackers..
Hopefully this doesn't put m back in weight...

Hello smokeymatt,
Heart the bad news. About the new stocking on last week.
We're fishing south bassin coming October, and with the new stocking our plans need adjustment.
Did you catch a lot of these new fish?
And witch swims did you fish?
Had no trouble with the cats the last couple of years( don't use fishmeals and you won't catch cats)
Hope to hear from you.
Greetings from holland, Roy

Just got back from a 4 week trip. Fished the south and the north. Lots of 10lb commons in the south now as it's been stocked for the world carp classic. Too many catfish in there now. Still lots of nice carp but it's hard work getting through the cats sometimes. Fished nemours last year on the main basin and we caught carp for two days then the cats moved in and we caught 1 more carp in 12 nights.

In reply to Post #6
I've ever really only concentrated on the South but irrespective of which part you are fishing, I would expect the silvers, tench, bream, cats to be wide awake and hungry.
I fished last September and lost the fish after 4 days as we probably didn't feed enough. We cooked particle on the bank and took lots of pellet and boilie. I reckon I easily put in 50kg of particle, 30kg of pellet and 25kg of boilie for those first few days but when a shoal comes in.....

Hi mate im off there again at the end of September,as for best areas its tricky as the swim you want might already be booked for the week you want to go swims 21 and 22 can be good so can 29 30 31 but it really is down to a lot of luck if the fish are in your area,iv never fished the south basin so cant comment on that,email the Masion de Pecheurs tell them the week you want to go and ask them what swims are free as you need to reserve and pay a deposit via credit card

this provides all the details you need.
You have to prebook night fishing swims.
If you get in touch with the Station Nautique, they are most helpful

Hi!
Is it anyone that have fished the during the last years that can tell me a bit about the fishing ?
Do you need to book swims now for night fishing?
Whats the average size of the fish nowadays?
Any other tips that can be useful?
Best regards
