AAPPMA LA GAULE NIORTAISE

This Gaul Niortaise was born in 1898 with the aim of «protecting the conservation of fish in the rivers and especially in the Lecourbe Niortaise, to restock this watercourse and to make its shores during warm days and summer evenings a pleasant place for the niortaise population». On the other hand, one of the statutes indicated that the purpose of the society was to provoke camaraderie, a friendship as it results from fraternal and philanthropic relations among all partners. It was then necessary to be sponsored to integrate the association. Today this AAPPMA, with 3 700 members, is tenant of fishing leases on the Lecourbe Niortaise with a length of about 35 km on the public domain from Niort to Damvix, not including the courses of friendly associations: . and La. In the private area of this watercourse upstream of Niort, it is 10 km from the banks which are also amodiées by Gaul Niortaise. Five specialized fishing clubs or sections were created by passionate members of the association: Niort Fisheries Competition, Club Quiver of Gaul Niortaise, GN Carpe Club, GN fly section, GN Section PREDATORS.
