Lac d'Aumar is a small, high-altitude mountain reservoir in the Hautes-Pyrénées offering bank fishing only for pike, perch and bass alongside trout species — a scenic change of pace rather than a dedicated carp venue. At 566 miles from Calais, it's a serious road trip suited to exploratory anglers rather than quick weekend trips, and night fishing isn't permitted due to its elevation. You'll need to contact FDAAPPMA 65 for a day ticket or season pass, and be prepared for potentially limited facilities typical of remote Pyrenean waters.
Night fishing at Lac d'Aumar is not permitted. Night carp in Hautes-Pyrénées is only permitted on specific named venues (Lourdes, Louet, Gubinelli, Arrêt-Darré, Maubourguet etc.).
