News from Laroussi lake
Oct 2005
'A whale of a time' at Laroussi! Lake record beaten twice in same week! , 1st Oct
Glen Swaby & Wayne Naylor have had a whale of a time this week.
Wayne on his first trip to France caught a new Laroussi lake record mirror 63lb 8oz! (PB) on Tuesday on 25th October. However Glen, from Pontefract in Yorkshire, only two days later, has just pulled out yet another incredible mirror weighing in at 65lb.
This tops their other catches so far this week which also included mirrors of 41lb, 44lb and 46lb to name a few and they still have two days to go!
The carp, believed previously caught in April this year at 54lb by Mr Clark, have shown a huge weight increase. "The rapid weight gain of carp at this venue is simply unbelievable, but most carp are well photographed and carefully identified so there's no mistake!" said Mehdi Daho, the owner and on site bailiff, at this tremendous Angling Lines venue. Mehdi believes these massive weight gains are down to the plentiful supply of natural food in the lake, in particular the vast number of snails in the venue. The 65lb pristine monster was only 1.10m in length.
Medhi assures us that with these weight gains other new sixties are expected to come out before the end of the season.

Here's the information about the new lake record catfish:, 1st May
Name angler: Dean Molloy
Rod: Shakespeare quarzlite 2.5lb TC
Reel: Daiwa regal-z 4050 BRT
Line: 15lb Krystonite. Hook: N°6 wide gape Korda
Hooklink: Snake bite 25lb
Bait: 14mm bottom bait Fusion
I caught this fish at 65 yards on a small plateau of 4 feet, at 7h 30 am, Tuesday 5 July 2005, on the swim " La Plage". It is the biggest fish of my life ! My last biggest fish was a mirror of 11lb so I smahed it of 85lb!!!
The fish does a terrible rush across the lake and I couldn't stop it!!! Then the fish turned and after 35mn of a very hard fight we landed him on the beach. What a fish!!! really pleased! New personal best.
Me: This monster catfish has been stocked 2 years ago at 66lb and 1.80m. Since this date, nobody has caught it but lost it a lot of times: hook pulled, snapped line or opened the hook.... I thought he was big but 96lb and 1.90m is unbelievable!!!! 30lb in 2 years! and 10cm!! New lake record!
Top angling! Congratulations Dean!
Best regards, Mehdi
