The Loire, a fisherman’s paradise<\/h2>\n

With more than 30 species of fish, the Loire has great fishing potential.
\nFishing in the Loire Valley is exciting, but not so easy due to changes in water flow and temperature.<\/p>\n

Fishing is also permitted along the entire length of the Canal d’Orl\u00e9ans. You can fish for carnivores and big carp! In the ponds, pike, fry, perch and carp abound. So get your fishing rods!<\/p>\n

Night fishing is possible, subject to the regulations on the Loiret fishing federation website. No-kill fishing is preferred. Regulatory conditions vary depending on the species, their reproduction period and other parameters.<\/p>\n

Fishing at the Etang de la Vall\u00e9e<\/h2>\n

Listed as one of the top 10 most beautiful fishing spots in the Loiret by the Loiret Fishing Federation, the Etang de la Vall\u00e9e offers a wide range of fish species: carp, roach, pike-perch, pike-perch, perch and catfish, etc. With a surface area of 71 ha and a depth at the bung of 5 m, it is one of the only spots in the Loiret where it is possible to fish in a float tube (except on the swimming side, where a rope delimits the area accessible to float tube fishing, at the end of the island).[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
