Lac Blanc, Savoie
This high-altitude Alpine reservoir in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes isn't a carp destination — it's a pristine trout and pike water best suited to specialist game fishers rather than carp anglers. Bank fishing only on a compact 10.7-hectare lake with day-fishing restrictions due to its mountain elevation, roughly 445 miles from Calais. Note: You'll need a valid French fishing licence and permission from AAPPMA de l'Amicale des Pêcheurs de l'Arc (La Chambre/Aiguebelle) — this venue won't suit a UK carp trip.

Savoie has only 4 designated night carp sites (Plans d'eau du Sauget, Reculfort, Lac d'Aiguebelette, Plan d'eau de Grésy-sur-Isère), all on advance reservation.
