FISHING
In Puebla?s environs you?ll find two places that are ideal for a
family fishing outing: two lakes surrounded by abundant vegetation, which offer
all the necessary services to enjoy a great fishing trip.
Club Amatzcalli de Metepec
? Located just 40 km
(25 mi)
from the city of Puebla,
and 10 km
(6 mi)
northwest of Atlixco. This is one of Mexico?s
first recreational areas with a controlled
ecosystem, which is done using state-of-the-art
technology. Here you?ll find a lake
with an abundant
supply of rainbow trout. Open daily from
8:00 to 6:00. Tel. (244)
444-0740
Club Amatzcalli de Chautla
? Located 30 km
(19 mi)
southwest of the city of Puebla,
along the Mexico-Puebla Federal Highway, and 4 km (2.5 mi) from the city of San Martin Texmelucan.
The grounds here form part
of the Ex-Hacienda of Chautla, where
you?ll find two lakes that
host three annual fishing tournaments. One is a trout fishing
competition, dubbed Torneo
de Aniversario. The other two, which are bass tournaments, are called Torneo por Parejas and
Torneo de Padres e Hijos. Open daily
from 8:30 to 5:00. Tel. (248) 481-1141
