French Riviera

Fishing is a widely practiced, popular sport in the many rivers and lakes of the Riviera which provide prime fishing. Most commonly caught are fountain salmon, pike and rainbow trout. The sport is, however, strictly policed for ecological reasons, and all restrictions must be adhered to.

 

Fishing areas fall into two categories, each of which has different permit requirements and seasons. You may not fish with out a fishing permit - Carte de Pêche. The local Mairie will provide dates for the season and information on where to buy a permit.

 

Available Carte de Pêche are:

• Taxe Complète, an annual permit for category 1 fishing.

• Taxe Réduite, an annual permit for category 2 fishing.

• Carte d'exonéré de la taxe for someone accompanying the fisher.

• Carte Journalière, a day pass.

• Carte Jeune for the under 16s.

• Carte Vacances, for the holiday period, 1 June to 30 September (limit 15 consecutive days).
