Ah, France! The country of love and romance, crispy baguettes and delicious croissants...but most importantly - great fishing destinations, among which is the picturesque river Creuse! Meandering through the very heart of this beautiful land, past lovely towns, villages and stunning natural scenery, this magnificent waterway flows on for 260 km and is the right tributary of Vienne, one of the most important rivers in southwestern France. Besides numerous hydroelectric dams, the breathtaking landscapes of the Creuse with the varied natural beauty of the river’s valley is ever so pleasantly diverse: from overhanging rocky cliffs and sandy shoals, to dense green forests and merry farm fields - no wonder the Creuse is a splendid natural oasis for recreation and sportfishing! Indeed, anglers from all over the country are drawn here by the countless fish species inhabiting the river’s clear clean waters: huge Common Barbel, Bream and Carp, plump Zander and Perch - and that’s just to name a few!

Starting points

Southern Viaduct

Southern Viaduct

This lovely spot not far from a magnificent viaduct bridge in the dam’s southernmost part is one of the best locations for spinning and float fishing on the entire Creuse river! Just the place to enjoy a warm summer day outside, marvelling at the natural beauty of pristine green woods and meditatively gazing at the fast-paced clear waters, hastily flowing by. Favorite fishing rod in hand and trusty tackle by you side, seize the magic of the moment as you indulge in the most relaxing pastime, attempting to catch countless Zander, Roach and Common Barbel.

A Sandy Riviera

A Sandy Riviera

If you’re looking to enjoy a day of feeder fishing, then this long streak of sandy beach on the eastern bank of the Creuse is just the place to go! Situated right next to a recreational camping park, this location is sometimes referred to by the locals as “the sandy riviera”, as the serene atmosphere and magnificent natural beauty draws weary tourists and avid anglers to its premises from all over the country. As the golden rays of warm summer sun gently caress you skin, let your eyes rest on the refreshingly green scenery of the surrounding woods and let nothing distract you from trying to hunt down the deep-dwelling monsters like Catfish, Barbel, Carp, Roach and Bream - all lurking in the clear blue waters steadily flowing by.

King of the Hill

King of the Hill

As a stunningly beautiful natural paradise, the Creuse offers many peaceful locations, overlooking a vast variety of scenic landscapes...all marvelous in their own unique ways. However, this particular area atop a forest-grown hill on the western bank of the river is particularly known for ist serene remoteness. As the soothing warm breeze gently caresses your skin, breathe in the invigorating scents of the summer forest and enjoy the placid view of Creuse’s aquatic splendour. Here, the sharp drop-off shore abruptly descends into the river’s deep clear waters...where countless fishy predators like Pike, Zander and Perch hide among the sunken logs of fallen trees, just waiting to be caught by a real predator hunter!

Rocky Domination

Rocky Domination

The Cruese wouldn’t be a complete angling paradise if it didn’t have some of the greatest locations for boat fishing! And this scenic area up north, below the dam in the river’s higher reaches, is just the place to grab your oars and do some rowing. A magnificent spot unlike any other, this place is dominated by overhanging rocky cliffs that boldly tower above these clear blue waters, abruptly descending into the depth below. Here, you can truly leave all your worries behind, letting them dissolve in the distance as you merrily row your trusty vessel further away from solid ground. With a breathtaking view of majestic rocky cliffs and overwhelming splendor of natural scenery, let nothing distract you from simply enjoying life, as you catch abundant underwater dwellers, lurking down below: Zander, Catfish and Bream are just a few of the fish species waiting to be outsmarted!
