The Charente-Maritime Federation for Fisheries is a federation that is very committed to protecting the fishing environment. On behalf of its 22 000 fishermen and 24 approved associations, it alerts us on the alarming state of the department's rivers and denounces the current water resource management. This department with various landscapes allows all types of fishing. Lecourbe Niortaise is a slow and deep water course for eels, white fish and predators. In the Centre, the River Charente is influenced by tides to Saint-Savinien. It is characterized by its carp, coconut and pike, but also a large number of mules from the sea and shad in May and June. Navigable up to Angoulême, the Charente allows to marry, with pleasure, fishing and walk with a boat. In the West, at the borders of the ocean, the Seudre and its canals, and the coastal marshes of Rochefort, Marenne and the Gironde estuary form a large fishing territory. In the south, Seugne is the natural jewel of Charente-Maritime, encouraging the hunt for itinerant pike. Finally, the Dronne is the kingdom of the Barbeau and the dowel.

Since 1992, the friendly fishermen of Antioch have been driving the port of Saint-Denis-d'Oléron, rich in a fishing team from all sides. Recreational fishermen, competition, edge or boat, but above all lovers of sea fishing. People or tourists, everyone has a place and is happy to practice. This melting pot creates conviviality and friendships: we are self-help, we share his knowledge of fisheries and his good spots. If he does not have a boat, if he shares the same values as friendly, can find a boarding for an exit from the sea. All this is organised at the friendly hotlines on the port of Saint-Denis. The room is on the northern parking lot behind the shopping centre. Welcome to talk fishing whether you are a non-member. LaAmicale regularly organises training meetings with high-level external stakeholders or with the club's competitors. Friendly outings are organized on specific themes based on fish at the moment: lures fishing, bream fishing, shark fishing, lean fishing. A periodical bulletin informs about the current sea fisheries in Oléron.

A guide to fishing on the island of Oléron, Pascal Captain, the likeable and expert captain-fisherman in the name predestined, takes you to the good posts for a sports and intimate fishing. In oyster and bouchots parks, in the realm of surface lures! It's in the southern part of the Island of Oléron by the presence of oyster aquaculture and myticulture that allows an entire ecosystem to evolve through tides. Here the bar finds its food. It's a shallow fishery (between 1 and 3 metres), very technical, with light material, hard lures, on sites where beautiful fish are on the lookout. The fight in force by the bar is exciting. Fish are sometimes reduced by several kilos. Do not delude yourself: fishing on the parks maybe… sporty! When conditions are not favourable to surface fishing on oyster parks, they are joined in the north, in more distant and deep fishing areas. The fishery is then pulled away by handling soft lures or exploded jiggs at the boat's edge (vertical fishing), or by launching lightweight soft lures (fly fishing). In both cases it is possible to try bars… and lean.

The ponds of Saint-Martin are perfect for a bucolic break. For a stroll, you can go around and at the same time take advantage of the playful course "The little world of Isis and Hétaïre, Poitou stallions". Moreover, two stallions, Venus and Olivia, will be delighted if you offer them some caresses (but especially not food). With tables or in the shade of the trees, the site is ideal for a picnic. From March to September, the pond is also popular with fishermen (several trout releases from March to May).
