Talsperre Pirk

Talsperre Pirk, in Sachsen, Germany, is the kind of reservoir where a careful approach pays off.

Boat anglers can fan-cast points and submerged humps — anywhere the bottom changes depth quickly. Lure choice at Talsperre Pirk usually mirrors the local forage: small baitfish imitations in spring, larger profiles through summer.
