Friesland is one of the best spots in The Netherlands to go fishing. From the shore, from a boat or from your tent you can fish for eel, carp and pike fishes. Frequently, huge fishes are caught. Please note that you will need a ‘fisher’s card’, you can request this card at de Deinende Dobber. In the meadow next to the campsite, there are two excavated trout ponds. There you can fish for trouts and you don’t have to worry about a fisher’s card! For more information, you can take a look at trout for all
