About Lake Juvanzé

Lake Juvanzé is a 5 acre mature gravel pit dug in 1983 and since untouched. The lake is set in a quiet wildlife preservation area in France's Champagne region, next to the River Aube which feeds the famous great lakes of Amance and d'Orient.

The lake was recently developed by Jeff and Dan Collins - a pair of young, carp fishing brothers - with help from Viv Shears of VS Fisheries and a Sparsholt working party.

The Collins brothers designed the water specifically for the UK angler who wants a peaceful, mature lake, with fewer anglers, and good action. There are 5 swims, two of which are doubles and the lake is available either for individual or whole-lake booking. It is been stocked with 180 mirrors, commons and grass carp averaging 21lb but currently up to 34lb. The owners are looking to introduce a few exceptional fish but for now they are more than content with the level of action available.

The lake opened in May 2007.
