a complete assessment of the situation in North Haute-

In order to maintain and strengthen links with local associations, the Haute- Federation for Fishing and the Protection of the Aquatic Environment is meeting the AAPPMA. For the North of the department, Friday November 15, the meeting was held at the Salle Ménissier in Wassy, ​​in the presence of around thirty people representing 18 AAPPMA.

After the first sector meeting of the AAPPMA of central Haute-Marne, Friday November 8 (daily day of Tuesday November 12), the Wassy meeting for North Haute-Marne was organized by the local AAPPMA. We will not return to the general questions raised in our Tuesday edition.

Concerning questions specific to the Northern sector, departmental president Michel Rémond spoke about the life of associations, emphasizing that the president must be able to delegate so that his AAPPMA is not cut off from all information. In the same vein, he singled out an AAPPMA which poses a problem since it has still not returned the accounting documents. Continuing his intervention, the president noted a drop in the number of fishing licenses, particularly with regard to major cards and discovery cards under 12 years old. On the other hand, the major cards, fall offer, are significantly increasing with 153 cards sold. For the coming year, an increase of €2 is on the horizon, i.e. €1 for the CPMA (Aquatic Fisheries Contribution) and €1 for the Federations so that they respond to the increases inherent to their proper functioning.

The technical commission continues its mission with numerous investigations into the environments and monitoring of the work. In this context, a major project has seen the light of day in Saint-Dizier with a discovery trail which will be inaugurated soon; it was specified that this achievement benefited from a significant partnership from the city, which made it possible to go beyond the initial project.

The meeting concluded with a complete assessment of the development of the fishing hobby, starting with the assessment of the Fishing Festival which welcomed fewer kids than expected, the result of more than unpleasant weather. Note that the Saint-Dizier edition in 2023 was a great success and benefited from very mild weather.

Once again the cormorants, and especially their excess, particularly in the North Haute-Marne, have fueled the debates, particularly the fact that these birds have not been regulated for three years. A new decree should see the light of day but it remains complicated.
