Angling Holidays In Extramadura Spain






With its lakes, rivers and lagoons the remote region of Extremadura offers some truly outstanding angling.  Huge Carp and Barbel abound in this beautiful wilderness.  The two top Carp venues are the Orellana and Sierra Brava which are dammed sections of the River Guadiana.  As well as holding the Spanish Carp record, many other fish over 70lbs have been caught in these waters.   Because of its remoteness, many of these fish have never seen a boilie. The Comizo Barbel unlike the species found in the UK can grow to over 40lbs, truly amazing fish from a spectacular area.  This region was once so off the beaten track that very few anglers from the UK ever ventured here.  Luckily today, there are a few specialist companies offering angling holidays in these outstanding venues.

Sierra Brava


The very picturesque Sierra Brava is an exciting venue to fish with regular runs from hard fighting doubles and fish to upper 30īs; it regularly produces fish around the 65lb mark, over the next few years we expect this venue to produce a record Carp.

This partially stocked lake is an easy water to get runs and we would expect most guests to land 30lb+ fish. It’s stuffed with fish between 10lb to 40lb but there’s always that anticipation of a monster carp will flatten your rod whilst heading for freedom.


 


A very picturesque and relatively young lake, constructed in 1996, it covers some 1650 hectares and is 9 KM in length. It offers a variation of fishing with large open bays and areas with sunken trees that provide perfect conditions for snag fishing.

The Brava is a cracking winter venue, 17 runs to one angler in a single day session in February with fish to 35lb.

Night Fishing on Orellana


 


The Legendary Orellana is probably Spain's top location to offer the likelihood of catching a record carp, it has already produced several 70lb plus fish.

Orellana carp are natural fauna fish that have dwelled undisturbed in this wonderful lake which is over 45 years old, the chance they have ever seen a hook before is unlikely.

These Carp are probably the hardest fighting Carp you will ever encounter.

The Orellana is not a stocked lake: it is the natural home to huge shoals of natural carp. Formed in 1961 by the damming of the River Guadiana it is a 37km long lake of 5084 hectares. Not the easiest of waters, this flooded valley with its impressive bays, deep gullies and silt plateau, provides a naturally waterscape for carp.


 


Being the lower of three adjacent lakes, the Orellana has a reputation of having the cleanest water in Spain. The fantastic water quality supports an abundance of natural food including a huge population of crayfish. This inturn provides the sufficient staple diet required to sustain such a large number of big Carp.


 


Having researched, studied and fished this incredible location for nearly 5 years, our expert knowledge of this water will assist you in having a Carp Fishing experience you willl not forget. We have partnered guests in up to twenty-two runs in a day with fish averaging over 25lb.


 


Now that we are able to offer night fishing, the potential of this superb venue is unimaginable.
