Holiday park on the IJsselmeer

We kindly ask you to use small barbless hooks (size 8 or 10) when carp fishing and to avoid larger hooks, such as sizes 2 and 4. Together, we can help make fishing at our park as enjoyable as possible for both people and fish.

The well-being of the fish always comes first at our park. We therefore ask you to bring landing nets and unhooking mats that are completely clean and dry upon arrival. This helps prevent the spread of transmissible fish diseases.

When unhooking a fish, always place it on a wet unhooking mat and handle it with care. Keep the fish out of the water for as little time as possible and return it to the water carefully as soon as you have finished unhooking it. Together, we can ensure that fishing at our park is as safe and responsible as possible for the fish.

Taking away or consuming caught fish is not permitted. In case of violation of this rule, a fine of €50 may be imposed.

Floats and method feeder sets are available for purchase at the reception of Holiday Park IJsselhof. These sets are specially selected for the bottom conditions and fish stock in and around the park.

For float and pole fishing, 6-millimeter feed pellets are highly suitable as bait. They can easily be attached to the hook with a small elastic band. These pellets are available at the reception or can be ordered when booking via the website. Additionally, a piece of corn or a small boilie can also be used.

Supplementary feeding is permitted. For the health of the fish and optimal catches, it is recommended to use the park’s feed pellets. These pellets are available at the reception and can also be reserved in advance when booking the holiday home.

Fishing with all permitted baits is permitted.

Note: Fishing with live fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, or mammals is prohibited by law!

Night fishing is permitted, provided that the park’s peace and quiet is respected. Anglers must not disturb other guests and must comply with all park rules.

Yes, a maximum of three fishing rods may be used per accommodation. This rule applies to all anglers in and around the park and helps ensure a responsible and enjoyable fishing experience. We kindly ask you to fish within the boundaries of your own garden to avoid disturbing other anglers.

Fishing at Holiday park IJsselhof is permitted without a fishing permit. Various carp species are released into the park waters each year. Fishing is free of charge from the jetty near the holiday home, at the fishing pond and from the jetty behind the reception.
When fishing outside the park, a valid fishing permit is required. A VISpas can be obtained at Hengelsport and Pet Shop De Moel in Wervershoof, approximately 4.5 kilometres from the park. At Holiday park IJsselhof, the Catch & Release principle applies. The fish are not suitable for consumption. The reception is happy to advise on suitable fishing locations within the park.

The waters surrounding our holiday homes are home to various fish species, including common carp, mirror carp, linear carp, crucian carp hybrids and various species of coarse fish.
