Another new lake being added onto Hooked on France is Lac Sebastian, if you are looking to do battle with some real leviathans, then this is the place to be at, stocked with over 300 fish this stunning 12acre venue situated at the heart of the Champagne region is a real gem, there are over 100 x 30’s, 30 x 40’s, 4 known 50’s with the current record standing at 53lb 4oz, the lake also has a good head of back up 20’s, visitors to Sebastian should expect to leave with their arms aching.

Over the past 12mths Lac Serenity has gone from strength to strength with most of the anglers visiting the lake smashing their Pbs. In June 07, Serenity played host to renowned fishing journalist Ken Townley.
