All you need to know about
different fishing techniques
To become an ace fisherman, it’s essential to know the different techniques for catching all kinds of fish.
- Strike fishing is undoubtedly the most classic technique. It can be practised all year round and is the type of fishing recommended for beginners. It allows you to learn the basics by trapping fish such as roach, carp, bream or gudgeon. To do this, you’ll need a mounted line.
- English fishing allows you to bait the big ones that you can’t trap with conventional techniques. In addition to the casting technique, match fishing requires a rod, reel and float to be effective.
- Lure-rope fishing involves strolling along the shoreline in search of fish to catch. It’s the ideal technique for trapping pike and other predators that tend to venture into crowded areas.
Rules to follow
on our campsite with
fishing pond in Vendée
As this is a private fishing pond at the campsite, you don’t need to obtain a fishing permit from your local fishing federation, as you do for river fishing, to fish in the campsite pond. And don’t forget to bring the right equipment, especially lines. Each line must have no more than two hooks, and each family is allowed to bring a maximum of 4 lines. In principle, nights will be devoted to resting in your mobile home, as you will only have access to the pond during the day, as night fishing is forbidden in the Vendée. What’s more, if you stay on our estate, you can also take advantage of all our star services, such as the water park with its large indoor swimming pool.
