Angling and Fishing in Poland

Poland boasts an extensive river network from the northern mountains and stretching across the plains towards the Baltic Sea in the north. The river systems are generally very clean and flow through forests, agricultural land and wild terrain, helping wildlife to flourish along the river banks.

Sea fishing is also popular, with firms such as Ark Charter offering angling cruises in the Baltic Sea from Kolobrzeg.

The most common fresh water fish in Poland are carp, tench, perch, trout (pictured below), salmon, eels, zander and pike. Private fisheries are common in many areas.

Sustainability is the practice of collecting fish (and other types of seafood) from environments with stable populations through eco-friendly methods, such as farming. Smoked Salmon food has been determined as “safe fish” because they come from sustainable populations.
