This is the traditional fishing contest, which is held on the island of Lafayette.
The contest is held in the afternoon.
There are five rounds per day, two in the morning,
a meal for a meal, and two meals a day.
And the afternoon at four o'clock, it starts and, as they say, there are traps and tricks, of course.
There are rounds, so each fisherman moves.
If we don't catch fish, we move to have another place, to have a better place.
But today, as everywhere, it has decreased year by year, and now we are at 110, 110 per hour.
We are still satisfied.
We had the years, we were at 240, but these years have gone by.
It's been 20, 30 years.
We will still say that 40-50% of the people who come from Germany are always used to them.
There are even German women, French women.
There are French women who fish.
I like fishing because it's calm and I like catching fish.
My parents don't fish, but my grandfather often fish.
So I don't know, it's like that.
What's good about fishing is that we can catch several kinds of fish.
I like fishing the carp.
Did you catch anything this morning?
No, this morning I caught nothing because there were too many people this morning.
That's why I'm fishing on the edge, so I didn't catch any fish.
What does the fish we fish become?
Most of the fish we catch, we can't put them back in the water once we catch them.
There are still a lot of fish that put the carp back, more and more,
and put the carp back in the water to catch them again next time.
What do you like about fishing?
It's relaxing, it's relaxing, it's relaxing, it's relaxing,
it's relaxing, it's relaxing, it's relaxing,
it's always nice to have a fish at the end of the can.
What's your technique to be able to fish well?
We learn on the back, we learn on the back.
We learn on the back, we learn on the back.
We learn on the back, we learn on the back.
And then, it comes all by itself.
Each fisherman has his technique, it depends on the part he puts,
the position he has of the fisherman, and then it's a leisure like everything.
I saw some, they had a crazy amount of stuff,
as far as there is material to have, for example.
Let's say the material, it's not the material that will bring you the biggest fish,
but then there are several kinds of fishing techniques,
which evolve more and more,
and that's when the fisherman wants to have the best gear than the other,
but to have the biggest fish later, it's not easy.
And then, as I said, it's the fish that counts,
it's not the material that counts, it's what you put in the can,
where you put it, what you put in the water,
and then each one of these techniques.
Yes, we also have a piece reserved for the material of fish,
we have about 50 cans, we have a station for each one,
and the interest is, we have the state.
I don't understand, what is a fishing station?
A fishing station, that's where we store the fish,
where we can try the fishing nets we prepared in advance.
Why do you have so many cans?
It's my friend's passion, so every time there is a new can that comes out,
it's much better for him, and as I prefer the cans that are lighter,
it's easier to handle.
Today, they are in carbon,
and it's still a fragile material,
if it falls, it can be broken.
What makes a good can? Isn't it necessarily the price here?
No, it's not necessarily the price, it's how we handle it,
to see if we are comfortable with it,
it's the price or the brand,
for me, the price or the brand, it doesn't change anything.
It's really the way we handle it.
Garpèche, he is commissioned by an association
to see all the links and constraints
on the association's waters.
We are also here for the prevention of pollution,
to know what to do.
There is a regulation that has been imposed by the association of fish,
so the regulation must be respected.
In case of non-respect of the regulation,
on a free water, there can be verbalization.
For example, a fish without a fish tank,
or catch the fish on other than the mouth,
it can be sanctioned,
or there are several other infractions,
but the list is long.
How did you decide one day,
to be a fish tank, explain to us how it happened?
First of all, I didn't catch the fish.
And I decided one day,
already preventing, seeing a lot of people who didn't respect it,
I said to myself, why not become a fish tank?
After that, I was in training,
so you have to know that there is a training to follow.
And after that, we are almost in front of the court,
and then we go back to work.
So, everything is between us,
are the people of Souflonheim respected by the regulation?
For the moment, I haven't noticed any infractions,
so I have to say yes.
In the committee, we are 15,
there are many volunteers who are always there,
in each demonstration,
there is an organization to prepare, to do,
and then we have dozens of volunteers,
who are still there,
and as always,
they are there in the demonstration screen to help us,
it's good too.
So, there is steak frites,
and jambonno frites,
or homemade potato salad.
We have 10 kilos of potato salad,
and about 20 kilos of fries,
or 30, it's in the freezer,
we have as much as we want.
For the steaks, we prepare about,
between 50 and 100.
Already there are 50,
so it should be enough.
After, there is also cheese,
there are the portions of fries,
white sausage,
snacks.
We have a butcher who takes care of the steaks,
we have a butcher's help who takes care of the vinaigrette,
finally, salads,
and all that.
And then there is the service,
to go out with the plates,
the menu for the people.
Thank you.
