Anglerverein Sylt e.V.

Sitting dreamily by the shore, eyes on the fishing rod, an oystercatcher chirps now and then, and on the horizon the sun is just setting into the sea. Whether out in the open North Sea, in the surf, in inland waters, or on the harbor pier, anglers are sure to have their fill on Sylt. The summer months especially offer a good chance of a catch, with bait like lugworms, mussels, and crabs recommended. But the island is also an angler’s paradise in autumn – a good time to fish for pike, zander, eel, and perch.

But let’s be clear: you need an annual fishing license to fish in the North Sea. For Sylt’s inland waters, you also need to obtain a permit. Anglerverein Sylt e.V. is the ideal contact for anything related to fishing on Sylt. So then, tight lines!
