The province of Jaén occupies the upper basin of the Guadalquivir river, where there are abundant reservoirs and a dense river network, which favors the existence of excellent fishing scenarios, ideal for practicing the different modalities in species such as salmonids (common trout and rainbow), cyprinids (carp, barbel and boga) and centrarchids (black bass).
Jaén has 40 federated fishing clubs, which carry out numerous fishing contests in its different modalities (cast salmonids, fly salmonids, fresh water fingerlings, children, juveniles, ladies and gentlemen, shore black bass, boat black bass and carp- fishing).
