In this episode of Chilly On Carp, Ian ‘Chilly’ Chillcott heads across the channel to Abbey Lakes in Picardie, France for some gigantic Carp fishing. While Chillies French may leave something to be desired, the venue certainly does not. Located just north of Paris, Abbey lakes is a mainstay in French Carp fishing, a country unanimously considered the best in the world for the species. Fox lake in particular has Chilly very excited. With a lake record of over 70 pounds and an average size of between 30 and 45 pounds, it’s clear why thousands of Carp-hungry brits flock over every year. With this in mind, our host needs to bring out the big guns and employ every tactic he has in his back pocket to get one of these monsters to the bank.
