Welcome to Etang Cache:
About us
We are Steve (the skinny one) and Dave (the fat bloke) and between us we have been carping for well over 50 years, which is actually a really frightening thought...
Our dream was to find an ancient lake in France with original carp, add to these with selected stockies, keep the features and snags and end up with a lake that we would want to fish. Four years later we have l’étang caché.
Now we would like to share our lake with you.
