Welcome to the Strandi pond!

We would like to hereby inform you about a few rules that need to be applied for the safety of the fish:

• You are only alllowed to start fishing after you bought the daily wristband ticket.
• You are only alllowed to occupy the fishing place after you bought the daily wristband ticket.
• When buying the day pass, every angler gets a wristband ticket. You are only allowed to start fishing if you have a wristband.
• You are only allowed to start fishing when you possess a hand net. It is not permitted to lift the fish with the fishing-line from the water. In case the fish swallows the hook too deep and you lift it with the line it will tear the insides of the fish up, or if the hook is in the mouth it is going to tear the mouth up, which will never heal.
• It is forbidden to weigh the fish so, that the scale is hung to its gill or to its mouth.
• Using a hook releaser is mandatory!
• It is compulsory to use a carp mattress. If you don't have one, there are limited quantities available at the fish warden, for a deposit.

• When the weather is hot and sunny the carp mattress will get hot, so please keep in mind that it has to be wet before you lay the fish on it.
• It is not permitted to put the fish on the rubble. There is grassy area behind or next to each fishing place, so for the protection of the fish we would like to ask you to use this area to take the hook out of the mouth of the fish. Please do this so, that you use the hand net to take the fish there in order to avoid it jumping out of your hands and get injured by falling down.
• It is strictly forbidden to put the fish in the landing net, except if you would like to buy it!
• Swapping the fish that already has been put in the landing net for one that you caught later and find it better is not allowed. Fish that has been kept in a not proper landing net will be injured, broken and after releasing it back to the water it will get infected which leads to the death of the fish.
• We ask you strictly to only put that fish in the landing net, that you would like to buy. We monitor this strictly!
• Taking pictures of the caught fish in a standing position is strictly forbidden! In this case the fish can jump out of your hand. A fish that has fallen from a height of 1-1,5 meters will swim away if you let it back to the water but it will be dead by the next day! If you take pictures of the fish in a squatting or kneeling position will not be that much injured even if it falls out of your hand. Taking pictures in a standing position is strictly prohibited! There are a lot of big carps in the pond. If you catch one of them and would like to take a picture please let the fish warden know.
• Using a large-sized hook is strictly forbidden!
• It is prohibited to use braided fishing-line!
• You are not allowed to buy a carp that weighs more than 5 kilograms and it can't be put in the landing net for any reason!
• If you catch a tench, it also can't be taken home or put in the landing net.
• If you catch or see an ill or injured fish, please let the fish warden know. Thank you!
• In case the fish swallows the hook too deep, don't tear it out or poke it with an improper tool, because the fish will get injured and die! What you have to do in this case: let the fish warden know, or cut the hook link at the mouth of the fish!
• Throwing the fish into the water from a big height is forbidden! It's best for the fish if you immediately let it back from the hand net after releasing the hook.
