Heidelberg Special Report

Great news for everyone in and around the Heidelberg, Germany area.

What? Well, there is a great group of local national fly fishers that meets the third Friday of each month. Not only are they fun to be around and provide interesting events, but they are more than happy to provide information on fly fishing in the local area. You can contact them thru Mr. Nico Dienst via email, or by writing:

Leimener Fliegenfischer Stammtisch
C/o Nico Dienst
Ruldolf-Wild Strasse #54
69214 Eppelheim
Germany.

Tell me some more! Well, if you live in the Heidelberg area, and are frustrated by the lack of readily accessible fly water, you may be in luck! The Resevior des Cigognes (Stork Lake) is located just one hour south in France near Seltz. No license required, but you have to pay 24 EURO for a day ticket on this well maintained private preserve. Rainbows and more! Check out the webpage at http://perso.wanadoo.fr/claude.behr/ 

To get to the Resevior des Cigognes, take Autobahn 5 south to the Baden-Baden exit (south of Karsrulhe) and head west - not towards Baden-Baden. Once you cross the border, turn right at the first intersection towards Beinheim. Keep heading north! Pass through Beinheim and on towards Seltz. Just before reaching the Seltz city limits, you turn right on to a small country road (marked with camping and other types of activities). Buy the day pass at the small restaurant on the left. Fishing waters are behind the restaurant. Enjoy!

The Stuttgart Rod & Gun Club has the fishing rights for a 4.8 km stretch of the Nagold near Neuweiler Gaugenwald . The R&GC also accepts local nationals as Affiliate Members.  It costs 40 EURO for the German club membership and 17,60 EURO for a day ticket. A very nice place at low cost.  A local guesthouse charges 30 EURO for an overnight stay incl. breakfast.
