León will be bustling again in just a month with the start of the fishing season that this year raises the curtain on March 25 to lower it in unregulated rivers with some exceptions on July 31 and extends to October 15 in the case of reservoir-controlled water masses.
Throughout the length and breadth of the more than 3,000 kilometers of rivers, thousands of fans of rod and line will make an appearance, most of them from León but also from other parts of the national geography who are looking for an ideal place to fish in these waters. both in the preserves and the Arecs and EDS.
The data confirms this. And there the preserves, by number and also by occupation in a new part of them take the cake as has become clear in recent years. And in the most recent of 2022. And it is that of the 55 among those dedicated to fishing with death and that without death, in nine of them the occupation went to full. Villarroquel (620), Sardonedo (602), Vegamián (540), Felmín (360), Tolibia (288), La Omañuela (280), Villafeliz (240) and El Castillo (207) in the case of those with death and Villafeliz (234) in those without death they took the cake, although it should also be noted that up to seven others also exceeded 90 percent.
On the opposite side is the Candín reserve, for which only one of the 104 existing permits was requested, Pereje with three of 120 possible and Priaranza with 29 of
708, in these three cases with fishing without death.
In total in the province of León and throughout its bodies of water, of the 30,370 permits available, the occupancy figure is 50 percent. Or what is the same, 16,442 of 30,370.
In this regard, it is also necessary to specify between those without death and those with death. In the case of the first of the available permits, 35.7 percent were assigned. With death this percentage went to 80.2 percent Also in the Arecs the fishing season passed in 2022 with a favorable signature, also taking into account the differences between them to the point that with full occupancy there have been seven ‘graceful’ while another 12 did not reach ‘approved’. Of course, some of them touching it.
On the positive side, there were Arecs such as Toreno and La Magdalena that, with no less than 1,404 available permits, reached 100%. That level was also enjoyed by those from Órbigo (910), Selga de Ordás (819), Palacios del Sil (812), Toreno (420) and El Balsón (196). At the gates were Puente Paulón with 99.7%, Pelgo with 99.6% and Mansilla de las Mulas in this case reaching 99.3%.
Total occupancy in this section for the Arecs stood at 42.7 percent, reaching 79.8 if we refer only to sections of river (not dammed water).
And finally the EDS (Social Sports Scenarios).
In the province of León there are five. And as data to take into account with up to four of them reaching the plenary session.
In this last section it is necessary to write down those of Santa Marina del Rey, Villanueva de Carrizo, Ponferrada and Villomar.
