Chanteboeuf – Carl & Lyn Wood

News from the Lake in 2025 Carl Wood & Wife Lyn Return to Chanteboeuf 2nd August 2025 Back to Lake Chanteboeuf again after our last trip in 2022.

Chanteboeuf The Beckensall Family

Shane Beckensall & family Regular guest Shane Beckensall has just had his family summer trip to the lake, hiring the house & lodge to accommodate his extended family. Fishing with his dad Phil whilst his wife Jo , daughter Phoebe and his in laws enjoyed the grounds, house, lodge and pool, Shane and dad bagged a fabulous tally of big fish in extremely hot conditions. And Phoebe also caught a fair few on the stock pond. Shane reported that due to the weather the fish really weren’t interested in feeding at the beginning of the trip and even the usual spots were only giving up the odd fish. On his previous visit in 2018 Shane took fifty Carp and so was looking to beat that total however with conditions more like the Sahara he...
