No more Moulinots for me Dave - 20+ trips over the years was enough.....
I love watching the Kev Ellis vids on Rainbow, but doesn't appeal as a trip. Too much like hard work (to get on there, and to fish it). I prefer to relax a bit in my old age 
Not playing a lot of golf mate. One round costs me about 2 weeks of back pain so I save it for special occasions & courses. Also, we're heading back to Kent soon so would be a 10 hour round trip to take you up on your offer!

Have you thought about trying to fish at Rainbow Lake, not everybodies cup of tea (certainly not mine) and to get on there it is like trying to get on a decent syndicate (dead mans shoes etc)?
Assume you no longer fish at Moulinots?
All the best for the future and maybe even meet up for a game of golf in the future, I will treat you to my course at Launceston providing you reciprocate.

As an update to the original post/video of the first Juvigny trip, I managed 2 further 'lockdown' trips in 20/21 - a week at Parco Del Brenta in Italy and another session at Juvigny in the Spring of 2021
What a 12 months of fishing!!! In total, across the 3 trips, I managed a total of 170 fish and these included 11 over 60lbs (2 over 70lbs - a big cat and the Juvigny lake record mirror at 74.10lbs)
The short(ish) video below features the big girls from the trips...

Well done again

I knew what you meant Fred
Luckily, I never got stung by Bossard, despite the near miss.... 
I've been lucky over the last few years. Had a couple of great trips to Parco Del Brenta (got back last Monday, having had 55 fish from swim 9, including another 60 - my 7th this year!!!), a good few trips to the ever popular Moulinots, and a few more to a couple of the lakes on this Marne Vally complex

Thanks for the comments guys - much appreciated 
If anyone's interested, the lake has just become available on an exclusive basis for the week commencing Sat 31st of October (due to Covid quarantine issues for the group that were booked on). Brilliant opportunity for anyone that can get a group together at short notice. I'd normally jump at the opportunity, but I have family commitments, plus I only got back from Parco in Italy last week
Let me know via PM if interested, and I'll put you in touch with Chris the owner....! 
Edit: hope this is allowed!? Can a mod let me know if not? Cheers

Not really I was referring to the old chestnut bozzard and the lesser spotted leviathans .
A while ago I agree but not really updated where he’s been fishing the last few years .
Didn’t want to mention it but needed to to support my comment .
