About Lac de Morat / Murtensee
Lac de Morat / Murtensee, in Fribourg/Freiburg, Switzerland, is the kind of lake where a careful approach pays off. Shore anglers do well casting parallel to the bank along reed lines and overhanging trees, where ambush predators wait. Boat anglers can fan-cast points and submerged humps — anywhere the bottom changes depth quickly. Lure choice at Lac de Morat / Murtensee usually mirrors the local forage: small baitfish imitations in spring, larger profiles through summer.

Fishing Techniques
- For Northern pike
Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.
- For Wels catfish
Fish near structures like fallen trees or bridges, as Wels catfish are ambush predators and like to hide.
- For European perch
Vary your retrieve speed and lure depth until you find what the perch are responding to on that day, and use light line.
