Le Canal du Nivernay

The Nivernais Canal is located in the departments of Yonne (89) and Nièvre (58), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region. It is a canal between the Loire basin and that of the Yonne, between Saint-Léger-des-Vignes, in the department of Nièvre, and Auxerre, prefecture of the department of Yonne. With river traffic of 19,324 locks in 2012, the Nivernais canal remains the second busiest in France for yachting, after the Canal du Midi. The particularity of the channel is that it has no current. Cut in reaches, it can have different and variable fish populations depending on the time or year. Indeed, carp can change reaches through the locks. The bottoms are particularly flat and edge fishing should be favored on the one hand because most of the natural food is concentrated there, and on the other hand when navigation is regular, it is better to avoid fishing. in the center of the canal. The nature of the bottom of a canal will depend on the substrate in which it was dug, but be aware that, except recent cleaning, mud may be present over most of the width. The natural food is mainly composed of larvae and insects, although anodont mussels can also be found on some and some American crayfish when there are grassland tasks that should be fished as a priority. The uniformity of the banks is actually an asset in the sense that any anomaly or structure along the banks attracts carp and should guide you in choosing a position.

Rules

Vegetable baits are the only authorized baits. Each fisherman is required to materialize his presence by a permanent light signal. Only biwys, shelters and brolly tents are authorized (green or camouflage colors). Stands, hanging tarpaulins and other shelters are prohibited. Night carp fishing is prohibited within 50 meters of the structures (dams, locks, etc.). In waterways, the area authorized for fishing at any time, day or night, may in no case exceed the two perpendiculars to the bank corresponding to the upstream and downstream limits of the course.
