Étang de Cazaux-Sanguinet

Anglers know Étang de Cazaux-Sanguinet as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Étang de Cazaux-Sanguinet is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.
