Zander
fishing in the river Aulne is going from strength to strength.
In the not too distant past you would hear stories of big zander
being caught but locals would put it down to rumour and speculation
as this species was not officially introduced to the river. This
means that you will be catching totally wild fish with a
population that has increased exponentially over recent years.

Pierrick with another big zander
to his name |
The 2007 season saw many big zander caught
from the locks of the Nantes to Brest canal system where salmon are
normally targeted. If you are a coarse fisherman who fancies a change
in species or a lure fisherman who wants to target a an exciting and
strong predator species, then this fish is for you!
Soft lures with twister or paddle tails
work well for zander. Sam recommends that you also rig up a predator
trace when fishing for zander as you may encounter a pike strike in
the process.

Pike, zander (see pics below), and perch
love weir pools. On the Nantes-to-Brest canal sections of the rivers,
Hyere and Aulne, there are an abundance of good weir pools to choose
from. Sam has details on hand to help you make an informed decision
depending on the time of year you come and fish. Zander over 6 kilos
were caught last year, many of which were caught by coarse fishermen
seeking a bit of a change. Pike and zander season on the Aulne runs
starts in January for about 3 weeks,
then their is a pause from February
to mid May
(to protect spawning stock) when the season starts again and
continues to the end of December.
Please remember that the minimum keeper length for both Pike and
Zander in the canal is 60cm.
