The
course of the old mill It
is not a course which we attend assiduously, but we do not neglect to make a
turn there when the water level lends itself to it. Then
you will be able to choose to start with the upstream or the downstream of the
course. Being a river in the public domain, circulation on banks is opened,
but attention with the dogs of the owners of the mill.
Indeed a deep pit is in the turn of the river, it is bordered of roots of trees.
Now, you have 2 options:
Then,
since this bank you are placed ideally to prospect the rocks and the walls which
form bank. The very beautiful ones but savage posted fish its length these walls.
With the top of the wall, veiled you in the fast part strewn with large rocks.
In this sector, the rising fish are practically invisible and we recommend to
you to fish water in edge of the powerful currents or in front of the rock blocks.
The old dam of water supply is visible, it constitutes the upstream part of
the course.
In the sector of this dam, it is possible to join other bank in wading, but
attention with powerful running. With the top of the latter being itself a pool
which reserves sometimes good surprises, the progression upstream is possible
rather easily only on approximately 200 meters and only left bank.
A rather physical course, and even almost impracticable by a little strong level.
The fish are not very numerous there, but often of beautiful sizes.
The access is relatively easy by normal level, it is possible to be parked easily
in front of the mill.
For the access downstream, it is necessary to penetrate in the field and to
go down at the edge of Nive by crossing the old dry level (attention with the
snakes). You veiled on-site, in general the fish are more numerous on other
bank in little upstream.
- left
bank (while
going up), indeed before the pit it is possible to cross rather easily. Just
with the upstream of this pit left bank, there is part of an old immersed wall,
one turns over is created just upstream.Beautiful trouts are held here sometimes
on surface, therefore attention with the approach.
- right Bank (while going up), the pit and the
arrival of the rapid in this one is easily accessible, then the fast part with
the large emerging blocks. the prospection will be identical to that recommended
there higher. Arrived at the dam, do not forget to test all the stations bordering
the dam. Then, remaining on this bank, you will be able to fish the downstream
part of the pool, and to leave the river by the driving path with the road.
