Fishing at Lake Mondsee

 

Lake Mondsee is known for its whitefish and char stocks, but also for many other fish species, including pike, carp, perch, trout, zander, eel and bream.

Angling begins on 1 April and ends on 2 November; with the exception of April, fishing may take place day and night.

Fishing is only allowed from the shore.

Two rods are allowed (five hooks and one hook), the daily catch is four fish.

The best fishing spots:

Parking bays after Plomberg (Kienbergwand), the sandbank in Kreuzstein or the public bathing areas, provided there is no bathing activity yet.

Please note the closed seasons, minimum sizes and exclusion zones!
The use of an echo sounder and live bait fish is prohibited on Lake Mondsee and Lake Irrsee.

Fishing at the Irrsee - possible all year round

The small, protected lake with its large, also protected shore marshes offers a variety of fish species such as carp, tench, pike, zander, whitefish and bream.

Angling for vendace, trolling for pike and catfish.
Bottom fishing - the muddy bottom is best suited for carp, tench and bream.
The Irrsee is purely a hobby fishing lake, there are no professional fishermen.

With daily or weekly licences you can also buy a boat ticket - but without an e-motor.

The best fishing spots: On the eastern shore of the Irrsee (by the public bath) when there is no bathing activity yet, i.e. early in the morning or late in the evening in summer. Promenade in Zell am Moos, public bath Zell am Moos as well as at the other baths (e.g. in Laiter).

Fishing tip: On the south shore of the lake - near Hotel Pöllmann there is a reed bed which is a good fishing spot for carp. Damage to reeds, rushes or water plants must be avoided at all costs!
