Hi Bob

have you tried the big companies like Angling Lines, CCCH, Horton fishing they may have a venue for you.

I have been to several in France but none springs to mind as wheelchair friendly, i think there should be venues of this type though!

Ron has more experience of France than anyone i know of so he maybe able to help Very Happy

Good luck, lets us know how you get one.

hi yes i have tried been surching for days with no result thanks for telling me thou . if only one of these france venues would built a purpursly built cabin that sleeps 6 with disabled ( paraplegic anglers ) like my self in mind they would be booked up all year round. and have cornered the market lol.

hi bob, i'm not trying to get you to go to another site, but have you asked claire sp on the reels on wheels forum?? the forum is solely for disabled anglers, and she would be very helpful with helping you find a venue.
I believe she went a few months ago and they took a wheelchair, so its got to be worth a try. Very Happy

and... im sure she wouldnt mind you asking, ron, I hope you didnt mind me putting this on here?? just trying to help
