Good fishing practices for peace of mind
Before taking out your line, your bait and unfolding your chair, make sure you’re legal to fish. A personal fishing card is compulsory. You can take out an annual, weekly or daily card. Prices vary according to age.
Good to know:
All watercourses and large (non-private) bodies of water are managed by the Fédération de l’Ille-et-Vilaine pour la Pêche et la Protection du Milieu Aquatique (FDAAPPMA) and by the Associations Agrées de Pêche et de Protection du Milieu Aquatique (AAPPMA). On the Montfort Communauté territory, there are two AAPPMAs, la Perche Montfortaise and la Gaule d’Iffendic.
In the rivers, you’ll find some fine specimen fish: pike-perch, pike, tench, black-bass, perch and roach.
Some rivers, ponds or lakes may be subject to specific regulations. For more information, visit the federation’s website (including opening times and days, depending on the fish).
