The Menthon is a charming trout stream in Haute-Loire's Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, offering anglers an intimate freshwater experience with opportunities to catch trout, chub, dace, and bullhead across its scenic stretch. This waterway is notably versatile for various fishing styles, with night fishing permitted alongside daytime sessions, and the ability to navigate by boat or establish a camp along its banks enhances accessibility to prime fishing locations. As with all French waters, a Carte de Pêche annual licence obtained through your local AAPPMA is required to fish legally on the Menthon.
