Anglers wish-list
e.g. herring, mackerel or garfish
More fish!
![Page 9: HIGH interest in LOW seasoncatch-southbaltic.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HolgerBente.pdfFrance Spain Ireland. 13 15 29 34 35 40 47 78 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Trolling Flyfishing](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051909/5ffd0830105c9467e564bdfb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
e.g. seatrout on the coast or cod from a boat/cutter
Anglers wish-list
Bigger fish!
![Page 10: HIGH interest in LOW seasoncatch-southbaltic.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HolgerBente.pdfFrance Spain Ireland. 13 15 29 34 35 40 47 78 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Trolling Flyfishing](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051909/5ffd0830105c9467e564bdfb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
any fish for someone e.g. from southern Germany – even a garfish –can be quite exotic and new
Anglers wish list
Different fish!

How to attract them?
![Page 12: HIGH interest in LOW seasoncatch-southbaltic.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HolgerBente.pdfFrance Spain Ireland. 13 15 29 34 35 40 47 78 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Trolling Flyfishing](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051909/5ffd0830105c9467e564bdfb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Different groups of anglers:
different methods (e.g. flyfishing – spinfishing)
different target-species (e.g. carp anglers – salmon anglers)
different fishing-water preferations (e.g. seafishing –commercial trout-lakes)
And also different intentions:
Fishing comes first vs. family comes first
You can’t target anglers in general!
Rule No. 1:
![Page 13: HIGH interest in LOW seasoncatch-southbaltic.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HolgerBente.pdfFrance Spain Ireland. 13 15 29 34 35 40 47 78 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Trolling Flyfishing](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051909/5ffd0830105c9467e564bdfb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Sea anglers (boat)Target species: cod, flatfish
• need harbour or slipway nearby
• keep bigger numbers of their catch: freezer needed
• fishcleaning-place very helpful
• often come in groups
• if stormy weather, good to have fishing alternatives nearby (e.g. commercial trout lake)
![Page 14: HIGH interest in LOW seasoncatch-southbaltic.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HolgerBente.pdfFrance Spain Ireland. 13 15 29 34 35 40 47 78 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Trolling Flyfishing](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051909/5ffd0830105c9467e564bdfb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Seatrout anglers (coast)Target species: seatrout,
occasional mullet, garfish, cod
• do not keep many of their catch
• need space to dry their wading-trousers and -jackets
• need alternatives fishing-spots, if the wind is too strong (islands are perfect!)
![Page 15: HIGH interest in LOW seasoncatch-southbaltic.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HolgerBente.pdfFrance Spain Ireland. 13 15 29 34 35 40 47 78 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Trolling Flyfishing](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051909/5ffd0830105c9467e564bdfb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

• no exam for getting a license needed (very confusing regulations in the different federal states in Germany!)
• most licenses easily online available• no separate boat license needed• closed season for predators very short (pike 1.4. until
1.5./15.5.)• lots of P&T-lakes countrywide• easy accessability by car (e.g. taking the dog on holiday) and
short distance from Germany• at the coast more space to fish (german coast often very
crowded)
Advantages for Fishing in Denmark

• nearly no summer houses directly at lakes or rivers (e.g. like in Sweden)
• less and smaller seafish than in Norway (except seatrout and salmon)
• except on Langeland not many charterboats• in main season expensive summer houses• higher cost of living than in Germany
