Summer fishing in Limfjorden 


Summer is not high season for fishing sea trout in Limfjorden, however, the summers in Denmark are not always warm, and if that is the case you can fish all through summer.

Summer usually means warmer water and low concentrations of oxygen - or oxygen depletion - in parts of the Limfjord. It that case, the sea trout seek towards deeper and cooler waters, and places with grave water turnover. That is also why you usually find the sea trout at fishing spots with deep water and current during the summer. However, the Danish summer is not always that hot, which sometimes makes it possible to fish throughout the entire summer. During summer, the sea trout also start their migration up the streams where they spawn during fall and winter. That is why you can experience some amazing angling days on migrating fish during summer, it is however difficult to determine when and where those days are. If the conditions in the fjord are bad, it is a good idea to search for the fish down the many rivers and streams that run to Limfjorden.

Garfish
The garfish that come to the fjord during spring can also be caught throughout the summer.

Mullets
During summer, you can also catch mullets that come into Limfjorden during spring. The mullets arrive around May and stay until fall. Fishing for mullets is extremely exciting because you are going for a visible fish that weighs around 1,5-4 kilograms. Mullets are known for putting up a fight, which is also what makes them delicious.
