Etang de Planchon - Lake development Progress Update

This week saw the replacement of the monk which was a requirement from the fishing authorities due to the introduction of pike to the lake.

The Old Monk


The new monk was installed this week and now that it has been the fishing authorities will be visiting the lake late next week and all their requirements will be checked.

The New Monk


Everything has been done to their specifications and after their visit it will be a case of applying for a date to fill the lake back up (provisional date of mid October).

The new design and size makes lake water level control more accessible and it can be controlled easier.



Everything is all on track for the lake opening in March 2011 and spaces are still available for 2011 so book now if you are interested.
