The river's permissive regulations allow night fishing, making it ideal for dedicated anglers seeking extended sessions, with facilities for boats and bivouac camping enhancing the fishing experience. Access requires a valid Carte de Pêche annual licence through the local AAPPMA, and the stretch between Gaduet's upper and lower coordinates provides diverse habitat for both specialist and general freshwater anglers.
