Lac Boulet is a compact 16-hectare reservoir in Occitanie offering solid carp prospects alongside pike and perch, set 481 miles south of Calais in the Tarn-et-Garonne region. Bank fishing only, but night carp sessions are permitted, making it ideal for dedicated carpers seeking a quieter, lesser-known water away from the crowded northern venues. You'll need to confirm current night-fishing arrangements and obtain your AAPPMA licence with the local fishing authority before arrival.
