RAINBOW LAKE - PEG 16 - The greatest fishing experience of my life?

Lac du Curton or Rainbow Lake as it is more commonly known, is one of the most iconic Carp fishing venues in the world, and regularly features in anglers lists of dream lakes they would love to fish.
I still cannot believe I have had the opportunity to fish this legendary water, and my sincere thanks to Toby for inviting me there. In this vlog we chronicle the highs and lows of our week at the 'bow, hoping to capture the drama in a light hearted but informative way.
I also have to thank Harry @ Bodle angling for his assistance in making sure I had the right kit, you can check them out here: bodleangling.co.uk

Hi Jason, think you commented on the wrong vid mate, but I echo your sentiment, Darrell has achieved something truly remarkable.

Thanks mate appreciated

[@GoneFishingVlog]

Very well put together video. Lake looked banging and some carp completed the package. Not easy by all accounts 🎣🎣

[@fordgoesfishing]

Glad you enjoyed it. Not the easiest of lakes for sure

Amazing video I fished the same swim 20 years ago never managed to book another trip as had to cancel the following year how did you manage to get booked. Tight lines

[@fordgoesfishing]

Thanks Ray. I’ll be honest I was invited by Toby who was lucky to be offered a slot having fished it the previous year but we are waiting to see if we can get back on in the future. All adds to the exclusivity of the place

[@fordgoesfishing]

Really appreciate the feedback though, I poured a lot of love sweat blood and tears into this one. It’s a tough cookie to crack but the rewards are there.
