Lac des Rousses
Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, France · lake
Anglers know Lac des Rousses as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, France. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Lac des Rousses is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.
