No crowded swims. No competition for the best spots. No waiting for fish to move. Just complete peace, beautiful surroundings and the freedom to fish whenever and wherever you choose.

Whether you’re searching for your next personal best, enjoying a week’s fishing with a friend or simply escaping the pressures of everyday life, Étang de Janine offers a truly exclusive carp fishing experience unlike any other.


Why Choose Étang de Janine?

At Étang de Janine, exclusivity isn’t just a word—it’s the way we fish.

By limiting every booking to a maximum of just two carp anglers, you’ll enjoy complete privacy and the freedom to explore every corner of the lake at your own pace.

Set in the heart of the French countryside, our mature 16-acre lake is home to stunning mirror, common and grass carp, with fish weighing over 70lb.

If you appreciate peaceful surroundings, healthy fish and unforgettable fishing, you’ll feel right at home here.


The Lake

Étang de Janine has been carefully managed to provide exciting, rewarding fishing throughout the year.

The lake offers a variety of natural features, open water and productive margins, giving anglers plenty of opportunities to locate feeding fish and adapt their approach as conditions change.

With exclusive access throughout your stay, you are free to fish where you want, when you want, without disturbance from other anglers.

This is fishing the way it should be.


The Fish

The lake is home to a fantastic stock of powerful mirror, common and grass carp, including fish over 70lb.

Every fish is treated with care and respect, ensuring they remain in exceptional condition for future generations of anglers.

Whether you land your first French carp or the biggest fish of your life, every capture at Étang de Janine is one to remember.


The Anglers’ Cabin

Included with every booking is a simple but practical anglers’ cabin overlooking the lake.

The cabin provides shelter from the weather, electricity for charging phones, batteries and fishing equipment, and a comfortable place to prepare food, enjoy a meal or simply relax between bites.

There are no beds or luxury facilities inside. However, there is plenty of room to sleep using your own bedchair if you prefer a warm, dry alternative to a bivvy.

It’s everything you need—and nothing you don’t.


More Than Just Fishing

A trip to Étang de Janine is about more than catching carp.

Wake to birdsong, watch mist drift across the lake at sunrise, enjoy spectacular sunsets and experience the peace and tranquillity that only a private lake can offer.

Take time to explore nearby villages, local markets and restaurants, or simply switch off from everyday life and enjoy the freedom of having an entire lake to yourselves.

    • Een mooi 7,5 ha water gesitueerd in het Loire dal. Er zwemt een mooi bestand tot over de 30 kilo. Echt een water dat je perfect met een groepje kunt afhuren! Het kan een lastig water zijn maar met de juiste aanpak kun je je borst nat maken.

    • It has always been a pleasure to fish at Janine, always throwing up surprise quality hard fighting carp. Janine is all about immaculate specimen carp, having fished here on quite a few occasions, I still return knowing that the chance of a new Pb could become a reality. A truly peaceful carp lake, that in this day and age are hard to come by. French carp fishing at its best

    • I would just like to write a few lines to let people know what type of chap David Scott is . Well the truth is I’ve never actually met the chap but if I did I’d gladly shake his hand and buy him a pint. Although I’ve never met him we have been in contact for a good number of years . I do a bit of charity work for 2 children’s charities and when I contacted David to ask if he could help with a raffle prize he more than delivered . I was hoping for a week for one or at best 2 people to auction or raffle off to raise some decent money for the charities. David gave me a full week exclusive use or his lake Etang De Janine which was more than I could have wished for . This has not happened only once as every time I’ve asked him for help he has come up trumps inc the time I asked for a one off trip to raise money for a very special boy named Alfie . Although I’ve never met him or been to any of his lakes I know he is a great guy as I have a few friends lucky enough to have met him and fished his waters and can’t praise him and his lakes highly enough Thank You David for all your Support & Kindness .
