Description
The privately owned Green Lakes, as we know them now date back to 2001, when the main lake known as “Land Of Commons” has passed into private ownership and our journey began. The lake was formed as a result of former gravel extraction in the late 1970s (sometime between 1978 and 1980). Once the quarrying activity stopped, the area was reclaimed by nature and quickly became popular with the angling community. The lake was then managed by SRZ (Slovak Anglers Association) for a couple of decades. The development of the area and establishment of true recreational finishing started by Mr Ján Olaš, a keen angler himself. The venue as we know it today is an authentic specimen fishery with original carp stock estimated to be averaging from 10 to 25 years old. Re-stocking of carp took place in 2000, under the management of SRZ (Slovak Angler Association) with carp (K3) (3 year old fish, circa 1000 kg). Following the acquisition of the fishery in 2001, Mr Ján Olaš re-stocked the lake with 1500 kg mainly common and some mirror carp with stock from Czech breeding ponds. No “trophy carp” have been stocked into the main lake. The experiences of anglers in recent years have been a prerequisite for the emergence of the new name of the main lake – “Land Of Commons”. But don’t be fooled by its name, there are several dozen mirror carp that show on the bank every now and then glittering on the surface. With carp fishing being as popular as it is, it can sometimes be a struggle to head to water full of confidence, especially on heavily fished waters. Our fishery offers natural and quiet setting for keen anglers looking for their next big catch. We have fish that are only a few years old and original fish that have grown to significant proportions and have seen it all! Green Lakes are situated in a quiet, easily accessible spot near a small town – “Nové Mesto nad Váhom” with a picturesque views of Beckov Castle and the White Carpathians Mountains. The lakes offer plenty of reasons and experiences to each angler that he will remember for a long time
Rules
Fishing is exclusively on “Catch and Release” basis only! No fish are to be taken away from the lake or out of your swim. An attempt to remove any fish away from the swim will be treated as theft. The stock of fish is regularly fed during the calendar year, regardless of the occupancy of anglers. Feeding is provided by the lake bailiff, in predetermined places around the entire lake and near the margins. As a precaution against various infectious diseases, unhooking mats, landing nets and weighing slings are provided by the lake bailiff at each fishing swim and for each angler separately. Predatory Fishing is strictly prohibited. The use of anglers own fishing gear (mentioned above) is strictly forbidden. Each angler receives one unhooking mat, one landing net, one weighing sling, refresh bucket, carp care kit fish treatment, a lake map with all rules and 2 plastic bags to separate the waste you produce. The provided fishing gear must be returned to the lake bailiff in the same condition as it was provided or may incur an extra charge. Fish can be taken from the water exclusively in weighing slings (including a folded landing net with shoulders). It is strictly forbidden to move fish in landing nets. During transportation of fish, ensure that all fins are flat against the fish body. Make sure fins are not damaged. Fish safety is our priority. Before placing the fish on an unhooking mat or in a weighing sling, the fishing gear must be soaked with fresh water from the lake. Do not place the fish on a dry unhooking mat or in a dry weighing sling. Keeping caught fish in weighing slings for longer periods of time is strictly prohibited (only the lake bailiff can give the angler an exception). Caught fish must be watered regularly on the bank by fresh water directly from the lake. It is strictly prohibited to use water that has been prepared or stored in advance (especially in summer and winter months). Any injured areas on the fish’s body (mouth, etc.) must be treated with the provided carp care kit before releasing the fish. Positioning the fish on its belly when the fish is placed on an unhooking mat is strictly prohibited (to prevent damaging the internal organs). Caught fish must be immediately returned to water after being documented. In case of suspected damage to fish or an obvious disease, contact the lake bailiff immediately for guidance. Any fish over 37.00 lbs. (over 17.00 kg) must be documented exclusively in the water. Entry into the water is recommended in waders. If a fish is deep hooked, hold the fish in the water in a landing net and seek help. When moving the fish, NEVER carry the fish unsupported even for short distances. When photographing fish, support the fish over a large unhooking mat, kneel and never stand up with fish. When returning fish after capture, please support the fish in the water giving it plenty of time to recover before releasing. For full rules and regulations please see: HERE
