LAKE AND RIVER FISHING IN SPAIN - HOLIDAY ENTERTAINMENT

If you have ever been on holiday to Spain it is a good bet that you have never ventured away from the area in which you were staying. But Spain offers far more than Sun, Sand and Sangria - it offers some of the best fishing in Europe.

Fishing on the Costa Blanca

The rivers on the Costa Blanca often hold carp and barbel but the Amadorio Dam and to a lesser extent the Guadalest's Dam provide the best fresh water fishing. They hold barbel, black bass, rainbow trout and the biggest carp. Rainbow trout were introduced in 1977 and are protected. To catch them you will need a licence with a trout supplement. The season for non-mountain trout runs from the first Sunday in March to August 15th. The sea fishing demands local knowledge to catch anything worthwhile and if you do strike it lucky you can expect to catch big grey mullet, sea bream and bass. Mackerel run two or three miles out from the coast. Late summer, autumn and winter, various species of tuna are plentiful.

Salt water fishing

The Atlantic and Mediterranean shorelines are ideal for fishing. Many of the marinas provide everything required for a day of open sea fishing and in most ports you can find day trip organisers at reasonable prices. Swordfish fishing is most spectacular. From July to September swordfish are found off the coasts of Almería, Granada and Málaga, as well as in the Bay of Cádiz. There is also tunny fishing in the open sea around Barbate, Zahara or Conil in Cádiz, and Isla Cristina in Huelva. Mackerel, sea bass, big toothed pampano, blue fish, and spotted bass are common catches. There are many big competitions during the summer.
