Le Lagoin is a productive French waterway in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques region of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, flowing through diverse habitat that supports healthy populations of carp, catfish, zander, pike, bream, and perch. Anglers can expect dynamic mixed-species fishing with the freedom to pursue night sessions and boat fishing, making it ideal for both traditional and modern techniques. A Carte de Pêche (annual licence) issued through the local AAPPMA is required; the river's 9+ kilometre stretch between Garlin and Orthez also permits bivouac and camping, allowing anglers to fully exploit this compelling mixed coarse fishery.
