Make an adventure out of your next trip in Arkel and go fishing with EcoRecreatie River Bellyboat Fishing.

These waters are known for Asp, Northern Pike, Pike Perch (Zander), European Perch, Wels Catfish, and more – with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some. On these trips, it's common to troll using light tackle. EcoRecreatie also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are welcome! Waders are available only from size 8, otherwise you should bring your own. Also remember to bring snacks to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!

You'll be dropping lines from one of our 4 bellyboats. You can use one of our electric trolling motor, you get fans and the boat is equiped with a fishfinder if you want. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, along with artificial lures. Want to use fresh bait, like maggots or bread you should bring it yourself.

You will need to buy a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

You could keep reading this, but wouldn't you rather be fishing with EcoRecreatie River Bellyboat Fishing?

My dad taught me fishing when I was 6. I have owned a fishing boat since 1994 and I specialize in predator fishing. My heart is on fishing the larger rivers in the Netherlands. My boat is on a trailer so we can go fishing almost anywhere. We fish on the rivers Rijn, Lek, Maas, Oude Maas, Waal, Boven Merwede, Beneden Merwede, Nieuwe Merwede, and Hollands Diep. We also rent out 3 hard bellyboats to fish the smaller rivers and lakes. Furthermore, I own another rental boat to go fishing on the beautiful river Linge by yourself or guided. This boat is electrical, permanent in the water, ready to fish, and located in Arkel. This river is good for lots of fish species, also non-predator fish such as Bream, Roach, and Tinca Tinca as well as predatory fish such as Pike, Zander, Perch, Asp, and Catfish. Fishing is what it is all about!
