- How does reciprocity work?
LTC is covered by 3 local AAPPMA
- AAPPMA Le Léguer
- AAPPMA de Tréguier
- AAPPMA de Pontrieux
These 3 asso have a well-defined territory of competence.
Since 2020, all AAPPMA are reciprocal with the department and the entente halieutique du grand ouest (EHGO = federal level). Concretely, when a fishing association is in the federal reciprocity, it is enough for its members to buy a card to fish in the EHGO (34 departments), or even on the whole France (except 6 departments). For more information: www.ehgo.fr
Fishermen who have a Major Person card from 22, can fish anywhere in the department.
Fishermen who come from another department and only have the Major Person card from their department, must buy the Entente Halieutique du Grand Ouest (EHGO) sticker.

Concerning salmon and sea trout (Different from brown trout)
Required: inter-federal or departmental fishing card + migratory stamp + salmon ring + catch book to be completed immediately after the catch.
- Whether no-kill or take, you need all these elements to not be ticketed.
Salmon fishing is stopped when the TAC is reached (quota). Each river has a different TAC. So if the TAC is reached, the fisherman has the opportunity to go fishing on another river where the TAC is not yet reached, within the regulation of 2 spring salmon/fisherman.
However, 2 other pieces of information are to be known:
- The 2 spring salmon/fisherman regulation is only a regional regulation
- The migratory ring is national
To know the status of the catches linked to the TAC, 2 possibilities:
- Consult the migratory ring depositories
- If the fisherman is in possession of a migratory ring, he can connect to https:declarationpeche.fr to access this information.
- Are there any fish that we are allowed to eat? Which are not in no kill imperative
No fish are no-killed in general. Some species are totally forbidden, others have a quota, others are in no-kill on a specific site. Ex: pike in no-kill on the pond of Guic
- What are the fishing techniques?
- At the blow and its variants (rather for white fish)
- At the casts and its variants (rather for carnivores and trout and salmon and bass)
- At the lures (rather for trout and salmon, bass, carnivores)
- At the TOCs with natural baits (rather for trout)
