Schwennau

Schwennau, in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, is a stream where current dictates almost everything. Rocks, undercut banks, and fallen timber are the obvious targets, but the productive water at Schwennau is often the seam between two current speeds — that's where fish wait for food to drift past. Match the size of your bait or lure to whatever insects, baitfish, or crayfish you can see in the water.

Fishing Techniques

• For Northern pike

  Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.

• For Common carp

  Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.
