The diversity of its natural spaces means that Aragon is a popular fishing destination. You can enjoy wild waters in the mountain areas or, alternatively, a relaxed day of fishing in the Yesa reservoir or the La Tranquera reservoir in Nuévalos. With the mild temperatures of the Mediterranean climate, you can find certain species in any season, while always trying to respect their conservation and minimise your environmental impact. In Aragon, you can find social catch-and-release fishing preserves, places where the fish must be returned immediately to the water to try to cause the least possible damage.
