MULTI SPECIES Shore Spinning In Danube

Free cancellation
Let me welcome you to the mighty river Danube with its reachness of predatory fish like zander, volga zander, asp, wels catfish, redfin perch, northern pike - only 1 hour drive from Vienna! Enjoy spinfishing from the shore for multispecies. The main catches are zander, volga zander, perch and pike. But depending on the conditions and season there's also wels catfish and asp possible - or one of the endemic zingel, a small perch-like fish living only the river Danube. There are spots where you catch almost all of the listed species, but if you want to target one single species, I can guide you to the specimen, you want to catch! So depending on your wishes for the chosen species we use a variety of lures, try different techniques and chose different spots. I'll guide you to your catch! Depending on the trip package, you can rent the tackle (spinning combo, lure box, terminal tackle...) or need to bring it by yourself. However, you never have to bring pliers or a net as I always provide them. The water body * river Danube * mostly muddy water * depending on the spot: no to heavy current * 1-8 m deep * stone structury For this guiding you need... * the fishing registration for Lower Austria (15€/person; lasting for 14 days) + * the fishing licence for the water body (20-50€/day/person - depending on your wishes we have to chose different Danube sections which vary in the prices) My guiding service includes organizing both, but both are pass-through costs & will be added to the guiding price additionally. They can be paid together with the remaining balance after booking. Possible extra services: transfer, lunch packages, beverages... I'm also open for multi-day-guidings on different waters for certain species. Just let me know so I can offer individual tours to realise your favorite trip. If you need accomodation I will be happy to help you finding the perfect solution. Questions or special wishes? Looking forward to hear from you!

Guide

Johannes Höfner

Operator since 2018
From an early age, I was captivated by the thrill of fishing on the River Danube with my granddad. Over the years, my passion evolved exclusively into spin fishing, taking me on exciting adventures across various countries and continents, mastering both saltwater and freshwater environments. As a proud Rapala/VMC/Okuma prostaff member since 2018, I’ve honed my skills and deepened my expertise. In 2021, I took a significant step forward by managing my own fishing waters, where the low fishing pressure ensures thriving fish populations that grow naturally without regular stocking. Now, I'm excited to share these pristine waters and my wealth of spinning experience with you. Let's embark on a fishing adventure targeting pike, trout, zander, and more! Join me for an unforgettable experience and let’s reel in some fantastic catches.
