The span-sized bone hooks in the Balaton Museum in Keszthely show that even in
prehistoric times the lake was inhabited by fishing peoples.
-
Hooks of this size
are – unfortunately! – not necessary today, but those with patience and
stamina can still take catfish over one-and-a-half metres long,
-
pike-perch as
long as an arm, or carp and white amur of over ten kilograms.
-
Angling tourism
is normally recommended in the early and late parts of the season, because
the fish bite less in the summer heat.
-
It is possible to fish almost everywhere,
but a license is necessary, and this can be obtained in any angling shop.
