Catch limits (daily take, hand rod)
These details are a quick overview. The water regulations of your fishing permit are always binding.
Brandenburg Fisheries Act (state law): BbgFischG only regulates one species explicitly: max. 3 eels per day with the hand rod (in waters without a fish migration link max. 5; silver eel exempt). Daily limits for other species follow from the respective water regulations.
Other daily limits depend on the water regulations that apply to your water — please check your permit before fishing (e.g. DAV or a private steward).

Good chances today. Stable air pressure. Cold – perch & pike still active Insider tip: September: autumn feed begins! Pike and zander loading up reserves — bigger lures, aggressive retrieves.

Wind from WSW – the lee shore (downwind) is often more productive, where food and fish gather.
Bait tip – September
Target species: Hecht – Large soft baits (15–20 cm), jerkbaits, dead-bait on the bottom. Autumn feed! Predators are loading up reserves — big fish are on the cards.

History & character.
Character
Der Ruppiner See bei Neuruppin ist mit 14 km Länge einer der längsten Seen Brandenburgs. Seine schmale, langgestreckte Form bietet auf beiden Seiten endlose Uferstrecken zum Angeln. Die Fontanestadt Neuruppin liegt direkt am Ostufer, während das Westufer weitgehend naturbelassen geblieben ist.
Water structure
Der langgezogene Rinnensee erreicht Tiefen bis 24 m in der zentralen Rinne. Die Ufer fallen unterschiedlich steil ab – das Ostufer vor Neuruppin hat Steganlagen und Spundwände, das Westufer ist naturnah mit Schilf und Kanten. Der sandige Grund wird in den tieferen Bereichen schlammiger. Barschberge und Plateaus in 6–12 m sind die Top-Spots.
Nature & history
Neuruppin – Geburtsstadt Theodor Fontanes und Karl Friedrich Schinkels – wurde nach einem Stadtbrand 1787 als preußische Musterstadt im klassizistischen Stil wieder aufgebaut. Der See ist seit Jahrhunderten Lebensader der Stadt. Er liegt am Ruppiner Kanal und ist über die Havel mit dem Berliner Wassernetz verbunden.
The fishing year at a glance.
Spring
Water temperature rises slowly. Perch move into shallow bays, pike finish spawning. Best time: from mid-April along weed edges.
Summer
Warm and nutrient-rich. Predators bite early morning or evening. Night fishing for eel and catfish is most productive now.
Autumn
Pike and zander feed up for winter. Large soft swimbaits & a slow presentation get the big ones now.
Winter
Cold and clear. Target species in deeper troughs. Vertical jigging from the boat or a bottom rig at dusk give the best chances.
