April 2022

Last week saw repeat visitors to Barn View Father and Son Adrian Ruddick and Daniel Ruddick. The weather was very intermittent from forecasts of rain all day for days, to lovely sunny days where Adrian got a tan...and made his legs like crab sticks lol. The warmer weather brought most of their fish out, they had 10 fish Adrian having 3 to 32lb and Daniel having 7 to his new Common PB of 44.6lb. All caught on the lake bait Carp PB Boilies

Thank you for a fab week we have had a great time & stories and had such a laugh, Thank you for leaving your areas in such a lovely order and so respectful of everything, you are a pleasure to have on the lake.

Thank you so much for the present of the solar fisherman light picture and Grandma’s luscious boozy cake Good luck with your exams, Daniel Ruddick finishing school & starting a new job and paying for your and your Dads trip next year lol

April 2022

This week saw repeat visitors from a few years ago finally getting here after the last two years of covid restrictions.

Shane Brockwell and father-in-law Mark Davies.

After horrendous queues and waiting at the ferry port for almost 7 hours to get on, they finally arrived, but to sudden freezing conditions, their first morning we saw feels like -9 cold.

They only managed to get a few out, as the conditions probably put the fish back to their slumber.

Thanks, guys for a fantastic week through tough conditions, had a great laugh and a great attitude....that's fishing...see you next year, when they take up our fly package.

 

 

 

 

 

 

October 2021

Last week we saw new boys to Barn View from Plymouth Simon Patchett, David Land and Steve Bealey, who have been regularly coming to France thought they'd come to an intimate private venue to have to themselves.

They had a great week, with a reasonable amount of carp considering the weather threw some sudden reduction in temperatures, they finished on 23 fish in total no big girls playing but lots of the mid to upper 30s and a few stockies. Simon got the name golden for his regular before-dinner catch lol, David played the night owl, getting most of his fish in the night/early hours, and Steve attracted stockies adding to the future monster pool lol.

All caught on the lake bait Carp PB Boilies and the boys took some home too, to use on their syndicate lakes

Thank you guys for a great week, the lake, fish and all the facilities were treated with the utmost respect, and left in beautiful order

Thank you see you all again in 2023

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

October 2021

 

After waiting almost 2 years from booking on, we finally got to see Adrian Ruddick and his son Daniel.

The temperatures have been so erratic seeing freezing some nights and then 18-20 degrees glorious sun in the day, the fish decided to switch off they managed to wheedle out 5 fish to Daniels New Mirror Pb 33.08 and his New French Pb, one of Adrian's fish being named Pacman All caught on lake bait Carp PB Boilies

Well done guys, a brilliant week had a good laugh too.

Thank you both for a great week leaving all facilities, swims and swim tackle in beautiful order clean & tidy. Daniel is growing into a lovely young man, very well mannered, great attitude, and is very passionate.

See you next year

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

September 2021

This week we had Brothers Martin & Daniel Armstrong and Uncle Tim.

The boys decided to take up our flight package and thoroughly enjoyed the experience from start to finish and will be travelling this way on their future visits.

The fishing was a little quieter than expected with the change in weather...but they managed to have 13 fish between them, a couple of stockies, some 30lb+'s and Martin's new 40lb Common PB with his just shy of 42lb Common, he has in the past jumped the 40's but absolutely made up with his new Common PB in mint condition The Kingfisher on his rods certainly brought him the luck.

See you next year

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

April 2021

Fantastic week with wonderful friends, it had been too long, but finally got you here.

Peter Adcock & his two Sons Daniel & Tom, the boys had a great week, none of the big girls playing (but Dan's lost one he saw, may have been one of our big commons)Weather was hot hot hot, but they had a decent amount with 30 fish to 39.12lb unbelievable all mirrors, Dan having 14, Tom on 11 & Pete on 5 & capturing some future beasts for the stock pond all these were commons.

All caught on Barn View Lake bait BV1 Carp PB Boilies

The boys identified a fish they have called paw print & experiencing two of the swims they thought from Mum saying "your in your own little sanctuary" to call Pete's swim "Sanctuary" and Tom's swim "The enclosure"

Thank you, boys, for a fantastic week couldn't have chosen a better week to kick us off, as I always say and it's sooo true you are all a pleasure to have on the lake, beautifully mannered, respectful and we have had such a laugh too...Thank you all of you see you again next year

OCTOBER 2020

 

From Several weeks ago, some of our boys managed to get out before all the further covid restrictions

The week saw Andy, Martin our adopted sons lol & friend new to their French trips Tom.

The drastic temperature and pressure drop played a part, but they weren't put off, with the crazy weather downpours, rainbows and storms

Andy putting his bankside chefs skills to practice with his fabulous kitchen tent, the boys were well looked after ate well, and had a few fish out 14 in total, in mint condition & 3 gorgeous stockies that have gone in stock pond to grow.

Well done boys disappointing that they didn't have any of the big girls out, but all caught on the lake bait, had a great time, and it was fantastic to see them again and loved having them on the lake.

Thanks guys for a fab week.
