2010 Come to Finistère, your Sea Bass is waiting! One of the best fighting and tasting fishes in our coastal waters. These mid to deep-water beasts will bend your rod into new parabolic shapes while trying to escape to the depths. The river Aulne is both a natural river and canal with km after km of great coarse and predator fishing. Angling pressure is very low so you have a great chance of catching your specimen fish. From March to December, you can fly fishing for big, double-figure rainbows on Sam's boat in the peaty reservoir St Michel. Alternatively, you can bank and wade fish too. For match anglers who wants to indulge themselves in big wild slabs of bream and roach, you need not go any further than the river behind Sam's cottage. European Sea bass are undoubtedly the king of sea fish in France. You can catch these hard-fighting delicious fish all year round by various fly, lure and bait fishing techniques. Be one of the privileged few to fly fish for this tarpon of the Breton rivers. Normally, Allis shad start returning to our rivers in mid April and are keen to take the fly. Many a slow fishing day has been saved by the Atlantic mackerel. When caught on light spinning or fly tackle, this accommodating fish turns into an electrified missile. For many anglers, catching a sea bass on the fly is the pinnacle of fishing in France. These finned beauties are indeed ferocious fighters and great table fare. Mullet are one of the most challenging yet satisfying sea fish to catch on light fly tackle. Alternatively, go for ultralight bait fishing methods. Within a 5 minute drive from our home, you can start fishing our wild rivers for native Breton brown trout. Just being in the river stalking fish and taking in the surroundings is enough to make any hardened anglers smile. For surfcasters seeking a fish that is both strikingly beautiful and delicious, you need to experience fishing for Gilthead sea bream. It's a summer fighter.   Spring Atlantic salmon fishing starts in mid March and continues to the end of May during most years. Every year we normally get a good run of springers. © 2010 Fish&Fun Brittany (all rights reserved)
