UPDATE :14MAY The 55lb 20z common, fell to a mainline active 8 popup,straight off the lead,this is truely a great fish for this island,we are spending a lot of time looking for waters in the north of the island,these are some of the oldest resovoirs on the island,and were stocked with carp, some 40years ago.These lakes are more difficult to fish, as they are steep and mountainess, and the stocks of carp are far less than the other lakes, but we believe much bigger!we will keep you informed and how we get on

I really like the look of the north lake, near Las Palmas, we didnt catch but we will definately will be going back for another go!We have caught many a fish from Chira, over the years,but this is very different, this lake holds some hidden jewels in the crown!I will be putting a note on the carp forum, as idiots keep saying there are no 40s or commons on Gran Canaria, if these so called carp anglers bothered to put as much homework into their fishing as Dave does, Iam sure these individuals would go up the ladder.You Dave,have put so many rod hours on Chira, with your clientsit stands to reason, how you get so many fish!I had a 41lb 8 with this company,and I weighed this fish on my own scales, yes 41lb 8!!so all you lot who critisised, you should work a bit harder,this guy has been fishing these lakes for 20years, so put that in your pipes and smoke it!
see you with the boys, for thebig event in July!

Had a great day out there, weather was perfect the lake and the scenery simply breathtaking, the drive to get there was worth the money in itself. And to top it off caught a 40lb 'er, there is no doubt some monsters beneath the surface and wont be long i suspect before someone gets a 50lb'er. Dave's a great guy who know's his fishing and had a good laugh with him . Hope to get over there again soon, cheers Dave have a few cold ones with u soon.......

As Dave says i had a brilliant days fishing. 20lb scraper and a 29.5lb mirror. Beautiful condition fish - looks like they've never seen a hook. Weather was really warm - but the fish seem to come on the feed the hotter it got. If you're in Gran Canaria and fancy door to door fishing, with beautiful scenery and nice on site facilities, then give Dave a call.
Cheers Dave !

I accompanied Rory on the two days of fishing and for me, who does not have a strong passion for fishing, this trip still offers an exciting day, astounding scenery of Gran Canaria from the journey up there to the moment you leave. Great for a chilled out time and sunbathing with the added bonus of keeping your boyfriend happy! great hospitality and would definatley go again, maybe even have a go myself!

Thanks again Dave and will see you soon. Kelly

LATEST NEWS 18FEB:Certainly fishing is more difficult lately,with the cold rain and wind ,this weather has only been in the mountains, while it is still nice and hot down on the coast, as allways.14 clients this week and only a few fish, but you cant catch them sitting around a swimming pool!!so you just have to keep at it, but Iam sure we will be back to normal, very soon.You normally get a couple of slack weeks this time of year, so keep those bookings comming in, and we will do our best to get a fish or two on the bank!.Thanks to all my guestbook writers, carry on writing!We have lots comming up, so please watch this space!

Hello again,
what great fishing we are all having. The last two weeks in November have been great with a big change in weather, with cooler temp, rain and good winds. Four 30's. 34 to Peter, 33 to Dave, 38 to me and a 30 to Gary. Most clients having multiple catches. All fish coming from the same ares near our apartments. Baiting up these swims is done every day so this is giving us a very good edge. Bookings are coming fast for the apartments as we ae doing a special price for the spring of next year 2008. I hope to see you soon.
