The fishing areas in Castilla la Mancha are wide and varied. Rivers, lagoons, reservoirs and more are always ready for the best fishing practice for athletes in the region and for those who visit the Autonomous Community with such enthusiasm.
In all the bodies of water there are multiple fishing possibilities and the activity is very pleasant since all the scenarios present their own riches, limitations and challenges. Let's remember that many of the swamps or reservoirs are bathed by the main rivers of the region: Sorbe, Guadiana, Júcar, Tajo, Tajuña.
Marshes in Castilla-La Mancha ideal for fishing
One of the great disadvantages throughout the Community of Castilla-La Mancha is the constant variations of its water masses, especially in the summer, making it difficult to find good-sized specimens, compared to other places on the peninsula.
However, some of the reservoirs or swamps in the sector do offer good fishing at certain times of the year. Let's review some of these in the provinces of La Mancha and the fish that we can find in them:
