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).

History & character.
Character
Der Schwielowsee südlich von Potsdam ist ein breiter Havelsee mit 7,8 km² Fläche. Seine offene Wasserfläche und die hügeligen Ufer mit Obstgärten und Fischerdörfern verleihen ihm einen fast mediterranen Charme. Für Angler bietet er exzellente Bestände an Zander, Hecht und Aal.
Water structure
Der Schwielowsee hat eine asymmetrische Tiefenstruktur: das Ostufer fällt steil auf bis zu 9 m ab, das Westufer ist flacher und krautreicher. Der sandige Grund wird in der zentralen Senke schlammiger. Schilfgürtel säumen die Buchten, besonders am Südende bei Ferch. Die Havelströmung durchzieht den See und konzentriert Zander an den Engstellen.
Nature & history
Die Havelfischer-Dörfer Caputh und Ferch am Schwielowsee blicken auf eine jahrhundertealte Fischerei-Tradition zurück. Albert Einstein lebte in den 1930er-Jahren in seinem Sommerhaus in Caputh am Seeufer. Die Obsthänge am Westufer sind ein Relikt des historischen Obstanbaus in der Havelregion.
