Private and Exclusive Carp Fishing in France

How to Plan Your Carp Fishing in France Holiday

Having been recently to France for a week’s angling I'd been astonished at the level of preparation involved simply to there. Now there were expenses involved that we simply did not think about, and I don’t necessarily mean the fortune we spent on terminal tackle, rigs, leads and containers to hold the bait in

There are a selection of things to organise for your carp fishing in France holiday and the very first one is to pick the lake you intend to fish. France is an extremely significant country and there a wide range of lakes of which hold some really big carp and the majority of them are not that heavily fished so the fishing can be be extremely easy. I know a handful of lakes that are truly wonderful and when fished the correct way you could bag 20 or 30 fish inside a week.

A sensible way to choose where to go is to do a google search for 'carp fishing in France' or even check out the web based online forums you will see plenty of people posting about their own trips to France in these community forums and you will acquire some great advise.

Now before you get to France you must book your ferry, always seek to book well in advance so that you will obtain the best price. A lot of us sail from Dover to Calais however the choice is yours. The trip usually is one or two hours so you do not have long to wait before you are on French soil.

The laws in France are different to here in Great britain and there are a number of items that you have to take with you when driving a vehicle in France to ensure you comply with what the law states

Items to take with you

High vis jacket for each person travelling

You must have a first aid kit

You must have a warning triangle
Uk licence
Head lamp adaptors
Spare bulbs
Gb stickers
Car reg documents
Fire extinguisher

I would advise you to complete a checklist and tick these things off as you get them. Failure to adhere to any of the above is against French law and you will be prosecuted

Don't forget they also drive on the right! The roadways in France won't be as chaotic as in The uk and the trip is generally a very scenic and pleasurable one.

We hope you enjoy your carp fishing in France holiday and catch the fish of a lifetime
