With 20+ years of experience on the Goncourt complex, we offer expert-led trips designed for serious anglers.
Join us for a fully guided carp fishing experience in France, where every detail is covered so you can focus on the fishing. We run relaxed but professional tours from the UK straight to the heart of the Domaine de Goncourt complex — one of the most respected carp fishing destinations in Europe.
Whether you’re chasing a PB or just want a week away with the rods, we’ll be on hand all week to support, guide, and help you make the most of every session.
La Botte offers a lively, social atmosphere with an excellent stock of hard-fighting carp, including regular 40s, 50s and 60s. It’s a great choice for anglers who enjoy plenty of action and a friendly lake vibe.
JB Lake offers a similar runs water experience to La Botte, with plenty of action and the chance to stay busy throughout your week. It’s also home to some impressive specimens over 60lb — so while you’ll enjoy consistent bites, there’s always the chance of landing a real monster.
You’ll be fishing on either La Botte or JB Lake — both part of the renowned Domaine de Goncourt complex. Each lake offers something slightly different, but both have the potential to deliver a trip to remember.
With 20+ years of experience on these waters, we’ll help you pick the right swim, understand the lake, and give you the best shot at a new PB
We’ve built this trip to be hassle-free from start to finish. One price covers everything you need for a solid week on the rods — from travel and swim drop-offs to midweek shop runs and bait support.
