Fishing courses Côte Aquitaine

The friendly Captain Boboss makes you discover the best fishing areas in the Bassin d'Arcachon. A fisherman's son, trained in the fishery, at the meeting, he returned to his home waters to act as a guide. With it you are fishing the bar, the lean, but also tuna and shark. You are generally drifting adrift in specific places: start-to-shoot fishing - bring back bait, surface or mudflap, or vertical fishing with shads, jigs and vifs. The Bateau boat can accommodate 11 fishermen, but the guide is limited to 5 fishermen for a better delivery. The different formulas range from the bar/lean exit to the shark fishing, a gift offer is even offered to delight a loved one. Sports fishing with beautiful reel tee in a fabulous setting!

All equipment is provided, so all you need is your courage to bring home a superb fish... If you prefer to laze around, there are some great sea outings as far as the mouth of the Bidassoa or close to the coast, giving you a unique view of the royal city. Departure is from the Cabane de la Nivelle in the port of Saint-Jean-de-Luz. You'll discover the bay of Saint-Jean-de-Luz, the Flysch cliffs, the Abbadia estate, the Rochers des Deux Jumeaux, Biarritz and the Rocher de la Vierge, the lighthouse...

Inseparable from a stay in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, Marie-Rose, a former port boat pilot, offers another way to discover the shale cliffs and perhaps an opportunity to approach the world of high seas fishing?

The Club Txingudi provides training in all forms of boating and introduces people to water sports. It has over 800 members spread across the anchorages of Txingudi Bay, with 2 sections: sea fishing, sailing and all water sports. Regattas, fishing competitions and nautical rallies are organized. It is also involved in training for all ages, and has its own clubhouse. An association to be supported by donations.

On the Internet site of this AAPPMA you all learn about local spots and animations, regulations and contests, and you can even buy your online fishing card. A.A.P.P.M.A. of Dreams, under the chairmanship of Michel Vincent, with over a thousand fishermen manages approximately 3 000 ha of private 2nd class water plans. Within the association has been created a fly fishing section which provides introductory and developmental courses, mouches courses and notions of entomologie and biology. Fishing outputs are also planned.

Alain De-Wael, an accompanying guide, knows the least of Dreams's great lakes in which he has practiced different fishing techniques for over 30 years. Generous and user friendly, he likes to share his knowledge and know-how. If you like nature in general and fishing in particular contact it for an exit that should allow you to spend a very good time. In the programme: perch, pike, perch, black-bass, eel, wells…

Founded in 1956, SWOT (French Federation of Fishermen at Sea) is dedicated to the promotion and animation (teaching, competitions…) of sport fishing at sea, recreational fishing at sea and casting. The good idea: go to the federation website to carefully consult the charter of commitments and objectives of eco-responsible recreational fishing signed in April 2010 at the Grenelle sea Grenelle. So you will know all about the need for better management of fisheries resources, legislation and penalties that do not respect it. You're warned!

A passionate river angler, Glenn, who is Irish by birth and Basque at heart, has been a fishing instructor-guide in the Basque Country since 2012. He has developed his skills and knowledge of different techniques, which has given him an in-depth understanding of fish behaviour over the seasons. Trained as a hydrobiologist, his playground is the Nive valley (1,300 km of swimmable stretch), the Lauhribar with its tropical vegetation that makes fishing a bit acrobatic, the Nives de Béhérobie, d'Arnéguy, des Aldudes and so on.

Specialized in seaside fishing, we find it everywhere, at the boat show, at the sea festival, at the France-Spain fishing competition, at the Bidassoa challenge and even at the qualifying fishing competition for the French championship.

In the series of gaves, rivers, torrents and streams... the Gave du Saison, the central axis of the Soule, 54 kilometres and 400 kilometres with its tributaries, from the Gave de Larrau and the Gave de Sainte-Engrâce, presents the most beautiful fishing course! Classified in 1st category, this river lends itself to all types of fishing, but mainly to fly fishing or fishing with the toc; the trout are very "biting" from April, wild, called fario! (Specific cartography available at the Tourist Office of Soule de Tardets).

The Nivelle, a European river of 39 km, crosses the Spanish territory and then, in its great majority, the French territory on the communes of Ainhoa, Sare, Ciboure and flows into the bay of St-Jean-de-Luz. Totally classified in 1st category and Index River by the ICES (International Council for the Exploitation of the Sea) and blue axis by the SDAGE (Master plan of Development and Management of Water). We fish the fario trout, present on the Nivelle and in its tributaries (more than 90 streams). Here, 10/100th or 12/100th line leaders are de rigueur.

Whether you're an intrepid beginner or a seasoned angler, whether you're on your own, with your family or in a group, we're here to help you discover the world of fishing. In the enchanting setting of Sare, one of France's most beautiful villages, Guillaume, a qualified instructor and fishing guide, invites you to explore the pleasures of fishing for Basque trout, which are 100% wild, in rivers. Varied waterways such as the Nivelle, Nive and lakes, as well as the exceptional Spanish rivers nearby, provide a vast playground for this wonderful experience.
