About Us
) |
My Name is Steve Bond. I've been fishing most of my life and Carp fishing for over 3 decades in England and Europe. I have run 2 large carp syndicate waters in England with fish to well over 40lb and help create, run and stock Fox Mere.
It was in 2004 when i went back to France to see what the commercial Lakes were like and to see if there was room for one more.
Don't get me wrong, i saw some stunning lakes and some beautiful fish but that's where it stopped. The way the lakes were run and operated didn't impress me at all.
There was no passion in the way the lakes were run most of the lakes were run by under paid bailiffs that were only interested in one thing and that was to catch more carp than you!
At Bossard myself and my Bailiffs don't fish, our job is to make sure you have a great holiday! Sure there might be a time when we wet a line but our anglers always come first.
"Just a thought" imagine if you were on a lake where you had just paid good money when the bailiff catches the target fish you are fishing for I'm sure you wouldn't be impressed!
Our main objective is to help you put fish on the bank! and to make sure you don't go hungry. At Bossard the surroundings, fish and food are great, and trust me, you won't be disappointed.
Here are some points to think about.
- Bailiffs that fish too much
- Food or lack of it
- Rubbish around the lake
- Lakes that look like a hole in the ground
- Barbwire fence up against your bivy
- Lack of facilities
- Noise (roads, railways too close to the Lake)
- Lack of big fish
- Not knowing what the angler really wants
- Lack of information about the Lake
- No Poisson Chat, No Crayfish and No Catfish
Don't get me wrong, there are some great lakes out in France, Just not enough to go around!
WELCOME TO BOSSARD!
