Dronières, Lac de,
Enduros are held here.


Ilettres 3, Lac de, Sallanches
I have recieved this picture of a fish captured in this lake of 1. catégorie, which I had never heard of previously. It's also called Lac à l'île.
Very little further informations are given - apart of the stated weight of 17,5 kg for a 72 cm fish - which I find hard to believe from the photograph!
Perhaps confusion of pounds for kilogrammes?
Anyway - the nice fish was caught on a Frolic boilie 4 o'clock in the night - but I wouldn't count on nightfishing being legal here!

Marcilly, Lac de,
The lake record, a mirror af 23 kg, was caught in '98.

Machilly, Lac de,
This 8 ha. lake between Léman, Vallé Verte, Annemasse and  Douvaine, and with easy access, has a very good stock of big carp. Only 2 rods allowed, and nightfishing should be possible, but I have not been able to find out when or conditions. I'm not sure if this is the same water mentioned above - but it might well be..

Mole, Lac du, Ville-en-Sallaz 
Very good density of big carp. A specific permit requirred.

Romagnieu, Lac de, St. Genix/Guiers
This 14 ha. gravel pit is extremely well stocked with carp - and at least a dozen of these are in the 20 - 23 kg bracket. Grasscarp are also present to about 15 kg. Only drawback are the huge quantities of small fish of 2 - 6 kg sometimes pestering the fishing. More info from APPMA de Romagnieu, phone 04 76 31 65 80.

Pérouses, Plan d'eau de, Rumilly, Annecy,
This 6 ha. old, matured gravel pit has a very nice density of nice carp of 8 to 15 kilos; eight known fish are 16 to 20 kg. Some grasscarp of 10 - 14 kg also present. It's still a fairly easy water, where quite a number of runs can be expected, even at daytime. Pression is quite hard on the water, though, and the fish has seen it all before - så a bit of originality will pay off!
It's a private venue, open for night fishing in weekends only. 3 rods allowed. Sacs and boats prohibited. The water is run by AAPPMA d l'Albanais, phone 04 50 64 61 63.
