The Wild Carp Challenge
Hosted fly fishing in Camargue
The Region
Land of wild white horses, black bulls, cowboys, pink flamingos and fiery flamenco - a stunning, passionate region where the cultures of Spain and France collide.
The Fishing
And most important of all – Camargue is home to thousands of acres of glorious, protected reed-fringed lakes offering the densest populations of (under fished) WILD CARP in Europe - and they take the FLY! See Mark Bowler’s excellent review of Camargue Carp in the December 2005 issue of Fly Fishing and Fly Tying.
