Jean-Marie Hauchecorne fished white shrimp and fish in the Garonne in Bordeaux. The man who offered residents and vacationers the opportunity to discover his daily life as a fisherman died on February 6.

His ship, moored at the Cité du Vin pontoon, will no longer take tourists on board. A mass will be given in his honor at Saint-Rémi Church, Friday, February 16, at 10:30 a.m. The death of Jean-Marie, a true “figure of the Bacalan district” plunges many Bordelais into sadness.
