La Beaume

As a river in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France, La Beaume fishes best when the flow is steady and the water is clear enough to see a foot or two down. Anglers who do well at La Beaume pay attention to small things: the angle of the current, the colour of the water, what's hatching, where the wading birds are working. Fly anglers can match local insect activity; spin anglers can run small spinners or soft plastics through the same lies.

Fishing Techniques

• For Round goby

  Gobies are bottom dwellers; fish your bait or lure close to the bottom, using a slow retrieve or vertical jigging technique.

• For Common carp

  Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.

• For Pumpkinseed

  Use light tackle, such as an ultralight rod and reel with 4-6 pound test line, for maximum sensitivity and fun while fishing for pumpkinseeds.
