Fishing cards

What is a fishing card useful for ?

With a fishing card, you are naturally allowed to fish in open waters. However, its owner must also be a responsible citizen fisherman, committed to advocating for the respect of aquatic environments and the promotion of sustainable fisheries. Additionally, they must fulfill statutory contributions, which are used to finance local fishery communities.

Moreover, your fishing card includes a Fisheries and Aquatic Environment tax, referred to as CPMA in French, a portion of which is collected by the water agencies. This means you contribute to the protection of aquatic environments. It also supports the operation of the National Federation for Fisheries and Aquatic Environment Protection (FNPF), which assists departmental federations in carrying out their missions.

Where to buy the fishing license ?

You can buy your card directly on www.cartedepeche.fr or at a card depositary or at the house of our federation.

Where can I fish with my fishing card ?

If you choose a reciprocal association (AAPPMA), you can fish in all the rivers and lakes managed by reciprocal associations in our department. Moreover, with your inter-federal card, you can fish in all the rivers managed by reciprocal associations in the 91 departments of the CHI/EHGO/URNE, in compliance with fishing regulations.

Warning :

Your fishing card is strictly personal. A photograph is mandatory, or you may be required to present an ID. In case of loss or theft of your card, you can reprint it on cartedepeche.fr.
