This is a thinking angler’s water where the carp aren’t easy to catch and each capture is the reward of your efforts and tactics. The catfish fight like warriors and will provide an unbelievable fishing experience for a lake of this size.

You’ll need to fish accurately and bait carefully. Starting the session with small carefully traps is always a good strategy.

Andy and his dad
We’ve seen plenty of father and sons teams on the bank of Beausoleil and recently, it was Andy’s turn to introduce his dad to the wonderful world of Beausoleil. It’s amazing to see how Colin has taken to the sport later in life, he even has his own Beausoleil tee-shirt now! Obviously having a son like Andy to guide him every step of the way is a massive edge but it takes a special type of father that can listen, follow and then apply what his son says. He doesn’t mind what size of fish he catches but he really appreciates the quality of the stock we have and he has caught some great looking specimens.
Max and family
Father Jon and son Max came with wife Stacy and girlfriend Olivia for their first proper family fishing trip in 2018 and had a session of a lifetime. Max, a devotee of the Beausoleil method, was responsible for all the rods, dad was always on hand to drop rigs, play and land fish and whenever they had to leave their rods, they left detailed instructions to Stacy and Olivia in case one roared off… which it did several times! They fished phenomenally well together and it was a testament to what a tight knit family these guys are.

Colin and family
Colin, his wife Hazel, sister Julie and her husband Simon have been to Beausoleil a couple of times and love fishing together here. Fishing as a group of 4 from the same swim is very rarely successful but they had a perfect plan. Never fishing more than 6 rods at a time and spreading them well into a variety of sections of the lake, they were able to share all the experiences together. With Colin and Simon in charge of the setup bankside, it was up to Hazel and Julie to take care of things in the water: finding features and topping the spots with bait. They liked it so much that by the end of the week, they just enjoyed rowing round the lake for the fun of it!
