The chalet is luxurious

Steve Hewitt: The chalet is luxurious

By Steve Hewitt on 5 June 2009

Wonderful venue; the lake is enchanting, the surroundings serene, the chalet is luxurious, Shirley & Martin are superb hosts and the carp were seriously hard-fighting fish in excellent condition. Oakview Lake is a tranquil retreat which suddely explodes into exhilerating action. A truly romantic place - a piece of paradise.

In two incomplete days we enjoyed six carp to 26lb including a perfect 19lb Common. Jackie (a novice) got the best and smashed her pb. Only one got away after a really hard twenty minute fight.
