Welcome To Cretelakes
Carp Fishing In France
Cretelakes is a beautiful 5 lake venue set in 130 acres. The lakes are former gravel pits dug around the mid 1970s and around this time they were stocked with carp and other course fish.
​
The venue was left undisturbed to flourish and mature with its tree lined banks and stocks of fish for three decades, we secured the lakes and set about creating a carp fishing complex that would be one of the best in France . After six months of tree removal and other obstacles 60 swims were created including 9 doubles across the 5 lakes. As the years passed the lakes were stocked with fast growing French carp including many 40lb+ fish and at present Cretelakes can boast some of the heaviest stocked lakes in France with literally hundreds of carp over 50lb, with many 60s a few 70s and the biggest residents over 80lb that are still growing year on year, Lake 5 alone holds over seven hundred 35lb+ Carp, Although at times the fishing can be difficult Cretelakes is a firm favourite amongst anglers
​
