Pike fishing in Brittany

But contrary to what we sometimes think and hear, the fishing is pretty difficult. Nevertheless, one can reasonably expect to catch 1 or 2 pikes per day, with real chances of catches approaching or exceeding one meter on several days.

Depending on the season, an acute knowledge of the lake and its spots are necessary to get the best out of your rod!

I do guiding in spinning, casting (especially with big bait), and also fly fishing.

– from the shore. The lake lends itself well to this but you need to know the different accesses from the shore or by wading. It is not possible to fish everywhere, and some places do not hold any pike, while others hold many!

– On my boat, which is based next to the lake of Brennilis and is always ready to go on water. Be careful, in medium wind, only some parts of the lake are fishable depending on the wind direction.

– On your boat, this allows you to familiarize yourself with this lake, which is huge. As I often hear from newcomers: “here everything looks the same, and it is too big. We don’t know where to start, where to stop and fish”.
