(Robert of the Saint-Seine)

There is now nearly forty years that I fished for the first time.

Small or large, it does not matter, but it is very naturally that this type of lake attracts me. Their forms, their landscapes, the intimacy and the calm one that one can find there make that they represent more than 80% of my exits. The fisheries of Carp, always left me the leisure observe the places and discover all sorts of thing. I will undoubtedly have had to do it since glosses, but it is for you that I inaugurate this series of items on the pond, medium of an extraordinary wealth.
