Étang du Lamond is an intimate 1.5-hectare natural lake in the Landes region offering bank fishing for pike, perch and tench in a quiet, secluded setting — ideal if you're seeking a peaceful alternative to busier venues. Day fishing only, with no boat access, so expect an authentic French lake experience focused on traditional bankside angling. You'll need a valid French fishing licence and should contact AAPPMA Landes (FDAAPPMA 40) in advance to confirm access and any local regulations.
At 494 miles from Calais, Étang du Lamond requires a longer journey from the UK, but Nouvelle-Aquitaine — a vast region stretching from the Dordogne to the Basque Country, with outstanding fishing across its many departments — rewards the trip.
