Great holiday went to Benefallet in Spain on the Ebro River with a guide called Peter. Been there twice a great holiday would recommend going through cat and carp fishing holidays as everything is done for you even the guides and the owner of the rental will drop off. Anything you need if you want a holiday that is simple and stress free, then the Ebro has everything, beaches for the kids, the village has a great restaurant 10 euros for a three course meal and the locals are really friendly and has a nice bakery and general shop. Great views and wildlife but would bring mossi spray with you if fishing on the river. My famaily and i had a great holiday and i caught a pb of 145 catfish the guide Peter knows the river well and is English, as are the people who own the guest house. There are also river sports such as canoeing and bike hire. The house is set in the mountains with the river a 100 yards from the property. Would bring a travel rod 5 and a half test curve 8oz weights as the river is fast flowing and a multiplier reel with 220 braid. You will need strong kit as you do not know what you will hook into. For carp a good reel with 20 pound line and a tin of corn. For coarse would use eight pound line and fish in the bays plenty of Crucian Carps and Chub, Bass and Barbel. If you are into wildlife there are eagle hawks and native birds that feed on the river. The guide has life jackets for the whole family and for a family of four will be around 120 pound for the whole day, until 10 at night so can catch a lot of fish in that time. I had a great time and will be going a third time in the future. For more information contact Mandy & Chad at: mandy@ebroriverrentals.com
