Een puur visavontuur met een visgids

Vissen vanuit de kayak of met een boot met een visgids

English

Welcome to the page of Kayakfisher, your fishing guide for a unique fishing trip from a Hobie kayak, in the middle of the Netherlands or in the region of southwest Friesland. For example I fish on the river Rhine (near Wijk bij Duurstede), the small rivers near Utrecht: Kromme Rijn, De Vecht or De Eem (near Amersfoort), the lake Gooimeer, river De Overijsselse Vecht (near Zwolle) or on the lakes and watterways in the region of southwest Friesland (cities Heeg and Sneek).

In the port of the picturesque city Wijk bij Duurstede

On this page you will read more about the possibilities to fish from out of a Hobie kayak. I have 4 of these kayaks and can take 4 people on a trip.

Ready for action on the Gooimeer to fish for perch!

But I offer more; a workshop for zander fishing from the shore and streetfishing in the cities Utrecht, Amersfoort, Bolsward and Sneek.

Opportunities and prices Fishing from the kayak
Fishing from the kayak is a special experience and is suitable for both the experienced and the beginner. The beginner learns to fish vertically, to fish with the drophot, to fish with the fireball and to fish with the Carolina rig. But also experienced predator anglers, who want to concentrate with different techniques specifically on zander, pike or perch, will have a wonderful day while fishing in a kayak.

Fishing on the Rhine

An entire day of fishing from the kayak costs including material
€ 120 for one person (VAT included). If you are with more people (4 is the maximum) you pay € 100 for the second and third person (VAT included). A whole day of fishing means that we fish about 7 hours.

Half a day of fishing from the kayak (about 4 hours fishing) costs all inclusive materials € 90 per person (VAT included). The maximum number of persons is 4.

Street Fishing
Street fishing in a city is already an experience in itself, with all the fun around you. It is also a very nice way to fish; you wallk with light fishinggear from place to place through the city. In addition, catches in number, type and size are often surprising.

I offer street fishing in the cities Utrecht, Amersfoort, Bolsward and Sneek. The price for one person is € 100 a day (for 7 hours). A 2nd, 3rd or 4th person pays € 75. VAT is included in these amounts.

The costs for half a day are € 80 (approximately 4 hours). A 2nd, 3rd, 4th person pays € 65 VAT is included in these amounts.

For an evening session (approximately 3 hours) the costs are € 60 (VAT included).

Streetfishing near the famous Waterpoort in Sneek (region southwest Friesland)

The used techniques are vertical fishing, throwing a shad on a lightweight jighead or plug, and fishing with the Carolina rig.

Zander fishing workshop
Even for the experienced predator angler the zander is often a fish that is difficult to catch. For those who (better) want to learn fishing on zander but do not want to go kayaking, I also give zander fishing workshops from the shore. In the middle of the Netherlands we fish nearby the beautiful city Wijk bij Duurstede. As it is of course also possible to catch a pike or perch from the shore, for example from a quay along a canal or in a harbor. For this I charge € 80 per person (VAT included). During this workshop we will be fishing for 4 hours and you will be familiarized with various techniques, such as vertical fishing, fishing with the drop shot and casting fishing. On request we can also fish with the fireball and the Carolina rig.

Boat fishing

And then there are people who prefer to fish from a boat rather than from a kayak. That is why, in addition to my kayaks for guests, I also have a small motorboat. With my motorboat I can take 2 guests.

A whole day of fishing from the boat including the use of all materials costs € 140 for one person including 9% VAT. If you come with two people, you pay € 80 including VAT for the 2nd person, so the total is € 220 including 9% VAT. With a day of fishing, we fish for approximately 7 hours.

A half day of fishing from the boat including the use of all materials costs € 90 per person including 9% VAT. We then fish for approximately 4 hours.

Me and my boat

Pike fishing in the polder

The Netherlands, water country. In addition to beautiful rivers and lakes, the Netherlands also has countless ditches and canals in the polders. These waters often have a good pike population. Go on an adventure during a hike through the polder landscape. The costs for this are € 80.00 including 9% VAT per half day (4 hours) per person. This amount includes the use of all necessary fishing equipment and coffee. A whole day (7 hours) costs € 120 including 9% VAT.

Belly boat fishing

Fishing from a belly boat offers a special experience that is very different from fishing from a boat or kayak and you simply have to do it once. Because how exciting is it to catch a fish that swims under you and that in peace and in a beautiful environment. I do not have belly boats myself, but Toine Aarts from Ecorecreatie.com does. He rents (maximum 4) hard belly boats with or without an electric motor. Check his website for the possibilities and prices. If you want me to come along for guidance, it costs € 70 for half a day and € 120 for a whole day, including 9% VAT.

Additional costs
The above prices do not include the cost of petrol required if you would like to fish outside the central region of the Netherlands or southwest Friesland. When planning an appointment, I tell you about the extra costs so you will never be surprised.

Fishing license
The necessary license, usually a VISpas or day pass, is not included in the mentioned prices. You have to take care of it yourself. Of course, I can tell you what kind of permission you need for a given water and how you can get the permission. Children under 14 years do not require permission if they fish under my guidance.

The VISpas and the list of waters in which you can fish with this pass

More information about the VISpas and the waters in which you can fish with this pass can be found here: vispas.nl.
