The crew has extensive local knowledge and is happy to share – anyone is welcome, from beginners to experienced anglers looking to refine some skills.

The catch will always depend on the gear and weather conditions. And if weather could be a bit unpredictable sometimes, in terms of the gear you are fully sorted – we will supply you with the full arsenal, starting from the conventional float fishing rods and spinning rods, “petty tyrants”, “sword”, “swing”. As a bait, you can also use by meat shrimp, mussels, crayfish, or conventional worms. Give it a try to the bare hook too!
