EcoRecreatie River Fishing Guide
If fishing on one of the most beautifull and longest rivers in the Netherlands is on your bucket list, look no further than the EcoRecreatie River Fishing Guide. With Captain Toine or Frans at the helm, you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.
Pike Perch (Zander), Northern Pike, European Perch, Asp, and more are in the cards if you come at the right time of year. For these species, you're likely to jig using light tackle. Capt. Toine also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear. Fishing on these trips is limited to catch and release. Besides predatorfish you can also try for bream, roach, tench etc.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome and child-sized life vests are available. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!
Your day begins arriving at the teahouse Carolinge where you will hopp aboard the 15 feet electrical aluminum fishing boat that holds up to 4 guests. Capt. Toine or Frans will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures.
You will need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. It's never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with the EcoRecreatie River Fishing Guide fishing on the Linge!

I organised this trip as a birthday surprise for my husband and his best friend, and it was absolutely perfect! Captain Toine and Frans were amazing from the very first moment, attentive, friendly, always ready to help and with such great energy that made everyone feel completely at ease. The morning was wonderful, the weather was perfect and we actually caught fish! For beginners, it was an incredible and very special experience. We left with huge smiles and memories that will last forever. We would go back without hesitation, highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable day out in nature!

Hi Hellen, you were great company Many Thanks for the nice words and the 5 stars. We are happy the surprise workes out well. See you next time! Best regards, from Toine and Frans.
Really enjoyable afternoon fishing on the Linge, loved the experience, couldn’t fault it! We even caught a fish! thanks so much
Captain Frans was great and we had a fantastic time!

Hi Birte, thanks for you guys visiting us and for the nice review! Frans told me Justus is a great angler! Enjoy Amsterdam.
Der Angelausflug war sehr schön. Das Wetter hat super gepaßt und die Natur ist wunderschön. Unser Guide Toine hat uns super begleitet und auch das Boot ist komfortabel. leider haben wir nur drei kleine Mini-Barsche gefangen.

Hey Isabelle, genau, super klein!! Sorry die fischen wolten niet bischen. Da hebben wir alles probiert. Aber da waren noch 2 kleine Barsche und 1 Rapfen! Vielen Dank für den schönen Tag! Hoffentlich sehen wir uns hier oder in Costa Rica :-)
Went for a morning's fishing on the river Linge, near Arkel. Cpt Toine was unavoidably unavailable, so had previously arranged a replacement fishing guide for us, who was excellent, having fished those waters for many years. All equipment was provided, we were fishing on lures for pike / perch and landed a Zander, which was quite a rarity. Frans was very attentive to my son, checking his lure, changing out for alternatives, checking the depth setting was right etc. Both Frans and Toine were very friendly and put my son at ease. This is a beautiful stretch of river - we came back a few days later and rented a boat from Toine for the day to cruise up to Leerdam and back. Highly recommended. Thanks for a lovely couple of days in our holiday!

Hi Glenn, thanks for your visit and kind review. It was a pleasure to have you and your son for the fishing tour and later your complete family for a full day trip in one of our electric sloops joining the beautiful river Linge. Good to hear you have had some beautiful days with us. Hope to see you again. All the best, Toine
