Fishing in Andalucia
As anyone who watches the fishing programs on T.V. will tell, there is plenty of fishing to be had in Spain. Whether Sea, River or Lake is your favourite, you will find it here in Spain. Large fish and great scenery thrown in for good measure. Sea Fishing. The Med. shorelines are ideal for fishing and many of the marinas provide everything required for a day of sea fishing. From July to September swordfish are found off the coasts of Almería, Granada and Málaga, as well as in the Bay of Cádiz. The tunny fishing grounds are Barbate, Zahara or Conil in Cádiz, and Isla Cristina in Huelva. There are mackerel, blue fish, sea bass and spotted bass on the Atlantic coast as well as some 150 types of shark. Eels, some quite large, are plentiful along the coast and they can put up a good fight. Rocky outcrops - such as on Torrecilla Beach in Nerja - are the best places and after dark is the best time to catch them. A good bait is strips of mackerel. Sea fishing is permitted all year from one hour before dawn to one hour after sunset. Fresh water Fishing. Trout, pike and black bass, barbel and carp are found in the rivers and reservoirs. There are 64 fishing preserves in the Nature Parks of Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas and Sierra Nevada Rio Frio is a small town between Málaga and Granada, just off the motorway in the foothills of the Sierra de Loja. and trout fishing has been traced back to 1664. Record catches include a brown trout weighing 5.2 kg. There is an all year round season here. Permits can be obtained from: Alberge de Pescadores de Rio Frio, Riviera de Rio Frio s/n, 18300 Loja, (Granada) Tel: (0034) 958 32 31 77. The open seasons:- For freshwater fishing are: Salmon: First Sunday in March to 18th July (limit: 3 fish a day) Trout: First Sunday in March to 15th August (limit: 20 fish a day) High mountain trout: 16th May to 30th September Sturgeon: 1st January to 31st July River crab: Thursdays, Saturdays and public holidays between 21st June and 31st August.

A maritime recreational fishing license is required for fishing from the shore or from a boat near the coast. It is obtainable form the offices of the 'Delegación Provincial de la Conserjeria de Agricultura y Pesca'. There is one office in each of the provincial capital cities. Sports shops can often arrange for a license. The cost is €22 and you need a copy of your passport or NIE. An angling licence is required for fishing in reservoirs, rivers and estuaries in Andalucia. They are obtainable from an office of the 'Delegación Agencia Medio Ambiente' (AMA). There is one office in each of the provincial capital cities.

    Bars with TV with a football bias :- The Bosque Big Al's D.B.'s The Coach and Horses The Acorn Barbados Legends The Blue Lagoon (unless it conflicts with other sport) Bars with TV for horse racing :- (And a bet) The Bosque The Blue lagoon Big Al's D.B.'s Bars with TV for motor racing :- Barbados Bar Cantero Sports FREE bars (no sport) :- Jago's (Roger's) Roger hates sport ! Bar Andrea Spanish Bars:- There are, of course, many Spanish bars showing Spanish football and other sport. - The commentary will be in SPANISH however, but like all sports the World over, a game can be watched and you will get the gist of what is happening!

    Take yourself !!
