Rivière de La Lys

Rivière de La Lys

The Lys is a river located in the Pas-de-Calais (62) department, in the Hauts de France region. The Lys is a river in northern France and Belgium, a tributary on the left bank of the Scheldt, which it joins in Ghent. Most of its course is now channeled. It originates in Lisbourg near Fruges, France, at an altitude of 114.7 meters. The first town it crosses is Aire-sur-la-Lys, in the Pas-de-Calais department and flows into the Scheldt, after a 195-kilometer route, including 85 kilometers in France and 24.6 kilometers in Belgium. The Lys valley is a biological corridor of major importance for the migrations of birds and aquatic organisms in particular. It is home to a rich diversity of white fish (bream, rudd, roach, crucian, tench), predators (pike, pike perch, perch) and intermediate-sized common and mirror carp. Note also the presence of migratory fish such as eel.

Only baits of vegetable origin or reconstituted flour are authorized. No captured carp may be kept in captivity or transported. Only green biwys and shelters are tolerated. The biwys must be equipped with light signaling devices. The sound level of the detectors should be set to the minimum. The use of BACK-LEAD is mandatory. Navigation is prohibited at night on rivers open to carp fishing at all hours. Night and day, respect for public tranquility, other fishermen (on board or not) and water users.
