Fish in the Domaine de la Trigalière ponds for pike, perch, black bass and carp using a lure (larva or insect). Fly fishing goes hand in hand with a peaceful state of mind, respecting the fish caught and voluntarily releasing the majority of the catch, according to a no-kill policy.
Whether you're a parent-and-child duo or a group, try your hand at this technique for a weekend that's as active as it is meditative, and share unique moments beside the Domaine de la Trigalière fishponds.
Ramiro has caught over 80 different species of predatory fish in fresh and salt water around the world. He will be your educational guide and advise you on the techniques to use for each fish.
