Where to Fish in Brittany, France
Brittany has some of the best fishing rivers and lakes in France, as well as
something like a third of France's coastline, giving a great variety for keen
anglers.
Fresh Water River Fishing
Rivers like the Blavet are vastly under utilized. There
are very few boats using the Blavet and river side access is excellent. The
river is of a fairly consistent depth and width making it ideal for match
fishing or fishing festivals.
The table below shows the main fishing rivers in the
Morbihan department of Brittany, listing the relevant fish species that can be
found in each river with a column to indicate the abundance of those fish ('3'
indicates a very abundant fish whereas '1' indicates that the fish is present
but not necessarily in huge numbers).
