About Ausee
Anglers know Ausee as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of Zürich, Switzerland. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Ausee is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.

Fishing Techniques
- For Northern pike
Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.
- For Brook trout
Fish upstream, casting into pools and runs, allowing your bait or lure to drift naturally with the current for best results.
- For Pumpkinseed
Use light tackle, such as an ultralight rod and reel with 4-6 pound test line, for maximum sensitivity and fun while fishing for pumpkinseeds.
