Severe drought restrictions (crise) in force

The Châtillonnais zone (Dept 21) is at crise — the second-highest French drought tier — under a préfectoral arrêté. Fishing itself is not named as prohibited, but water is severely restricted and flows are likely very low; fish with care and check locally.

Arrêté préfectoral n°37578

Temporary notices from official orders and recent fishery reports — they clear automatically once out of date. Always confirm locally before travelling.

How to fish it · for Rainbow
When
Current conditions suit Pisciculture des Truites de l'Aube well for summer tactics. The ripple should help fish move and feed more confidently. Very warm conditions — trout have a narrower safe zone of cool, oxygen-rich water. Fish only at first light or last light, use barbless hooks, keep fish in the water during release, and stop if fish struggle to recover. Evening can bring a surface rise — have a dry fly or emerger ready.
Where
Start with Chironome (12-16) — on the bob / top dropper. Midday in warm weather — switch to a fast-sink or Di-7 and fish boobies or blobs along the bottom. Rainbows respond to more active retrieves — try short strips between pauses.
The plan
Plan A

Start with Chironome (12-16) — on the bob / top dropper. Midday in warm weather — switch to a fast-sink or Di-7 and fish boobies or blobs along the bottom. Rainbows respond to more active retrieves — try short strips between pauses.

Plan B

Fish early and late, try deeper during the heat of the day with a fast-sinking line.

Watch for

Evening tends to be the best period in summer — stay late if you can for a sedge or spinner fall.

Bank

Bank-only venue. Fish from accessible margins, points, weed edges, and inflows.
