CARPE
FISHING

Besides playing golf, my other ‘addiction’ is fishing… carp fishing!

Good carp fishing can be found in many different types of water. Many find rivers to provide some of the most challenging, but rewarding, fishing. Tuscans love to fish and in most towns you’ll find a fishing and hunting shop. 

Call in and tap into their knowledge about good local places to fish and the licences you’ll need.Also, for fishing enthusiasts, the two lakes CHIUSI and MONTEPULCIANO are a must. 

Lots of techniques can be used, such as spinning, from a boat with an electric motor or by using oars. Carp fishing from the shore can haul carps of considerable size. With a minimum of cost one can practice the bottom fishing technique, also called the English, thus catching carp, cat fish and perch.
