The river „Fischa Dagnitz“is the home river of the mayfly! It is a special gem among the rivers belonging to the Austrian Fishing Association with its large beds of plants reminding of the chalk rivers in South England.

The special efforts made in this connection make every fishing day a special adventure. The main season of mayfly fishing is above all the first half of June. The very river section belonging to the Austrian Fishing Association is divided into three areas named Pottendorf, Unterwaltersdorf and GramatNewsiedl, each easily accessible.

The side brooks as well as the „Old Fischa“ are protective areas where brown trout are especially cared for close to nature.

The river is known for its well grown brown trout. The fishing season starts on March 16th and ends on December 31st; annual season- and day licenses are available. The main part of the river belongs to the political district of Baden and can be reached from the federal capital of Vienna by car within approx. 30 minutes. Meeting point of fishermen is the „Mina Tant“ (Aunt Mina) , a nice inn at Schranawand where flies, floats, etc. can be bought, rods can also be hired on request.

It is compulsory to have an official fishing- or guest license for Lower Austria.
