ESAC Information
The European Specimen Angling Centre or ESAC complex is set in 200 acres of forest and farmland.

ESAC fishery is located in the southwest of Brittany in a small village called Loscouetsur- Meu. As the name implies, the river Meu runs around and through the lake "peace" , "tranquillity" and "seclusion" are some of the phrases that come from the anglers that visit us.


ESAC is 1 hour drive from the port of St Malo, which is the closest port, or a 2 hour drive from Caen or Cherbourg, otherwise a 5 hour drive from Calais.

ESAC has three lakes in its complex: Le Lac Fishabil, Kingfisher Reserve and Lac Locarno. However Lac Locarno is not available for fishing as we are holding and breeding fish in it at present.
