im planning my first fishing trip away. gonna go next year. was hoping to go this year but things didnt work out for me. im in 2 minds about canada and france. what do you guys think?

First trip France every time,its got exactly what you want,runs or big fish,large lakes small venues.Limited or exlusive.Ive got two trips under my belt so far and im deffo on for a third next year.Already narrowed it down to 2 venues.

canada if ya want a holiday and ya dont have to stress to much to get a lot of fish crap load of 20s and 30s up to over 50s france alrite has plenty to choose from lake after lake and all good fish in them up to 70s all dependin on what type trip you want can be hit n miss on some them

FRANCE!!!! Canada is gone to crap with the bow hunting, most of the biggies are gone. Average catches are away down also. The flights a nightmare. I was there last October and to be honest I wouldn't be going back in a hurry, at all in fact. I'm delighted to have gone and done it but it wouldn't be my cup of tea. We ended up describing our trip as being the closest thing to sea-fishing for 20lb chub. Poker rods, super heavy tackle due to boulders, 80lb+ leaders, 6oz+ leads to hold the bottom and just endless runs from dime a dozen commons. It only gets worse the more I think about it.

Suss out a nice quiet venue for yourself and a few mates in France and you'll enjoy it a lot more.
