Iceland we are coming!

01-04-2019: Today I happened to see a news item on the internet that the icelandic airline wow air has gone bankrupt and that the Dutch airline Transavia will take over these flights with a number of offers from July. I quickly went to the Transavia site and to my surprise I saw the price of 150 euros for a return ticket. I quickly called transvia and my wife on her cell phone a hotel and a rental car. Within an hour we arranged the trip (Flight, hotel and rental car) for 5 people with a total price of 2500 euros. Keep following the site to hopefully see the fish photos in a few months.


12-04-2019:
The past few weeks have been dominated by work. We have tried twice to catch a carp, but both times the carp were too clever for us. The coming days it will be a lot colder so a good time to do maintenance on the fishing gear. In a few days the first major trip will be abroad, so April should eventually be a good month. I hope to be able to fish for carp again next week, but definitely look back on the site at the beginning of May.


19-04-2019 till see may: We enjoyed the French hospitality for two and a half weeks but it was hard to catch a fish this time. In the end we managed to catch 5 carp and 4 sturgeons and given the catches of other fishermen this was not even that bad. Domaine de la Vallee is a great water if you like a challenge and don't expect dozens of carp in a week.

As mentioned, it was working to catch a carp this vacation. In the end we caught a carp and four grass carp.

There are several walks in the surroundings of la vallee. In Valdieu a sign with the walks is indicated, enough to keep you entertained for a week and to keep the lady of the house happy too.

In addition to carp and sturgeons, we also managed to catch other fish in the meantime.

For pictures of the sturgeons that we have caught look at the month of May.
