Lac de Villedon: Fish Stocks

You only need to take a quick look at the gallery to realise the Villedon fish have been individually selected for their growth potential and individual appearances. On visiting the venue you will soon see we are proud to have some of the finest fish France has to offer.

Villedon stock is a mixture of large framed mirror and common carp together with some exceptional linears. Additional species are sturgeon, koi carp, pike and zander.
