Carp France Fishing is a well established fishery located in Massignac, about 45 minutes from Limoges. With two lakes for exclusive use on the site, each with it’s own chalet, providing accommodation for up to 6 people, this is an ideal location for your next carp fishing holiday.
Nigel and Jo (About Us) bought the property in May 2023 but the fishery was established in 1999, one of the first carp lakes offering fishing holidays in France for UK anglers.
The fishery was mentioned by angling legend, Chris Yates and inspired his book ‘Cross Channel Carping’. In this book he described the lakes as: “…Well off the beaten track, well clear of the over–intensive carp circuit, these lovely pools each have the unique atmosphere, offering wonderful fishing, especially for the stalker and have the potential to make even your biggest landing net look small…”
Your fishing holiday can be tailored to meet your needs as we can provide airport collections, tackle hire and food packages. We make our own bait onsite and feed the fish with this over the winter, so you can be sure the fish like what you are feeding them.
We can offer guidance and support if you are new to carp fishing or we can leave you to work the lakes out for yourself. Whichever you choose you will be very welcome. Please feel free to Contact Us with any questions you may have or to enquire about booking.
In 2026 we have partnered with the Metropolitan Police Angling Society Peace of Mind Campaign
Research has shown the positive impact that fishing can have on mental illness and our anglers tell us how much better they are after a week away from the daily stresses, just sitting by our lakes in the peace and quiet
Partnering with the MPAS Peace of Mind Campaign has enabled us to give away a week on Kingfisher to help support people who need it

There are several other charities and non-profit organizations who use angling and time by the water as a form of therapy to support mental health, reduce stress, and combat isolation. Many of these groups work alongside healthcare providers via social prescribing. Why not have a look to see what is in your local area www.anglingtrust.net
