France is known as the most famous destination for carp fishing due to its numerous lakes and small ponds crammed with carps even in excess of 40lb to 60 lb. There are a number of privately owned as well public lakes that serve to be the best venues of carp fishing in France. Public lakes in France include Bills Lake and Brittany Mill and hundreds of others. Privately owned lakes include Rainbow Lake, L’Etang de Tricherie and L’Etang du Chef de Ville that offer fishing along with accommodation in their best resorts.

Before you start for carp fishing in France, you must keep in mind a few things in order to achieve successful fishing. The most important thing to take care of while going for fishing is the bait you are using. The type of bait used for varies from lake to lake due to different echo system of each lake. Before starting carp fishing in France the bait used by you is checked by the lake authorities for its appropriation.
Another tip to fill your basket with carps is to fish at margins of the lake or waters. The major reason of fishing at margins is that there is a large amount of food accumulated around the margin of the lake. The food is accumulated either by the blowing winds or by the continuous waves of water. Other than food the semi-aquatic life like tortoise and crabs lay and hatch their eggs near the water margins that is also a treat for under water carps. The food will naturally attract the carps towards the margins and you have a great chance of success while carp fishing in France.
Another reason to hit the margins of the lake during carp fishing in France is that margins can serve as a shelter for carps. There are loads of weeds and vegetations grown in the margins so carps prefer to find shelter at the margins that is why it is easy to tarp them around the margins.
Proper techniques of angling play a major role to success during carp fishing in France. Angling refers to catching a fish with the help of a rod and a line. The name angling is given due to the angle formed by both rod and the line during fishing. Select a rod that can withstand the stress and pressure during fishing. Purchase a line of optimum quality as average line has no guarantee of breakage under the weight of larger carps
