ATTENTION! READ THE FISHING RULES CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING YOUR FISHING.

Generally

When the fishing license is paid for and ready, it must be at hand during the entire fishing trip and can be presented at the request of a supervisor. The fishing license is personal and may not be transferred.

Methods

Only rod fishing is allowed (spinning, angling and fly fishing). Fishing with nets, nets, seines or other mass-catching gear is prohibited.

Fishing with a maximum of two (2) rods per person and fishing license is permitted. Regardless of the number of rods, they must always be kept under supervision during active fishing.

Catch Limits

All pikes and all trout must be re-released, all year round. Any caught pike or trout must be handled as carefully as possible and released immediately. Information on gentle catch & release can be read further down.

1/3-31/5 all perch must be released back. At other times, a maximum catch of 3 perches under 30 cm per fisherman per day applies.

All perch that are 30 cm or longer must be restocked.

Other rules and guidelines

The fish you are going to bring home must be euthanized immediately and must not have to endure unnecessary suffering. Storing fish in a keepnet or similar is permitted (not trout and pike) as long as the fish is not damaged.

Driving may only take place on permitted roads. Respect prohibition signs.

Show consideration for landowners and farmers. Private plots may not be entered.

Show respect for animals and nature and leave the fishing site in a tidy condition.

Used fishing gear and other rubbish that ends up on the ground must be picked up.

Keep it clean and tidy and you contribute to everyone having a pleasant experience!

Information about catch & release

If you catch a fish and intend to release it, consider the following:

- use a net (preferably knotless with rubber mesh) and always avoid letting the fish lie on the ground. Wet rubber mats or so-called landing mats can be advantageously used when unhooking

- handle the fish with wet hands

- always minimize the exposure time of the fish above the surface (let the fish rest in the net in the water while you prepare the unhooking, camera, scale, etc.)

- if the fish is to be weighed, use a wet bag, for example a weighing bag or plastic bag.

- small treble hooks and single hooks are gentler on the fish and increase the survival of fish that are re-released.

By following these simple steps, the fish have a better chance of recovery and survival after release.
