Oakview by Linda Latham
We were lucky enough to be able to stop at Oakview for a few days whilst making one of our usual trips to some of our venues in France. On this trip most of our visits to the lakes were grouped in an area where we could stop in one place and circle out each day to view the venues. When we arrived at Oakview in the evening Shirley and Martin made us most welcome at their home with a nice hot cuppa. From their house we could just see the lake through the trees in the distance as the sun was going down. We discussed their plans and then the talk got around to the actual fishing something I love to do! (I always travel with my rods in the roof of the van) Martin could see I was chomping at the bit and offered to show me around the lake - if I wanted to fish… If !! – we were down the stairs and half way across the field before his feet touched the ground.
As we walked around the lake Martin told me all about the work they had done – including de-silting the lake and putting in a deeper channel along the left side of the lake (looking from the cabin) He also showed me the hotspots where successful anglers had fished before. (more…)
