This year I am going to Le Fresne sur Loire, in fact I have a gite which backs on to the river Loire. I have never been to this area and wondered if any members have any info on the river here.
It is about 50 Km upstream from Nantes, and from the photos looks really wide, several hundred metres. Is it still tidal this far up? I know there are catfish in the Loire, but are there any other species, bream carp etc? Are there any French equivalents of this site, or are there any French magazines that I could get, as I read and speak some French, and my daughter is fairly fluent.
I have fished all over Brittany, Normandy, Limousin and the Dordogne, and prefer to fish rivers rather than Lakes. Any info gratefully received
