Carptrek is not a commercial venture it is a group of angling friends in the Oxfordshire area who go overseas in search of good fishing, good company and a tranquil, relaxing fishing holiday. If you wish to join us get in touch.

We usually book the exclusive use of a prolific carp lake in France and stay for a whole week. We enjoy hearty meals on the bank and wash them down with a bottle or two of the local wine.
