An area dedicated to fishing
The Grand Pavois Fishing 2025 is considered a must-attend nautical and sport fishing event, open to professionals and enthusiasts alike, with the presence of over 800 brands and nearly 70,000 visitors expected throughout the week in La Rochelle. The event promises to be a great opportunity for innovation, conviviality and sharing between enthusiasts, with a top-level line-up guaranteed by the diversity of brands and teams.
The event brings together everything a sport fishing enthusiast or professional could wish for: competition, innovation, networking, and technical discoveries in a unique setting.
The Espace Pêche, located in the Grand Pavois marina, offers entertainment, equipment demonstrations, sea trials, electronics training and presentations of the latest innovations from the brands present.
The Grand Pavois Fishing 2025 will be held from Friday September 26 to Sunday September 28 in La Rochelle, and promises to be a particularly rich edition, with a maximum quota of 35 boats registered, from the leading brands specializing in sport fishing at sea.
The competition is reserved exclusively for brands of boats, engines and nautical equipment: a unique concept in France, enabling pro-staffs, guides and ambassadors to present new products and share their techniques both on and off the water.
The fishing zones are the Pertuis d'Antioche, renowned for its trophy bass and demanding technical conditions, and the Pertuis Breton, which serves as a fallback zone in case of bad weather.
Teams registered include some of the biggest names in the industry: Suzuki Marine France, Yamaha Motor Europe, Garmin, Mercury, Honda Motor Europe, Bénéteau, Amiaud, Ribwest, Courseulles Mer et Passion and others.
Official presentations, events, trials, meetings with experts and guides, as well as raising awareness of ecology and safety at sea will punctuate the event.
