Vinkeveense Plassen

In the Dutch Province of Utrecht you will find and area which is both a nature reserve and recreational grounds called the Vinkeveense Plassen. It consists of a couple of large waters with wetlands and islands and is situated just to the Northeast from the village of Vinkeveen.

Because of the central position close by all the major Cities the Vinkeveense Plassen is very popular amongst people who love a wide range of aquatic sports. Spread out over the whole area there are different facilities were everyone can enjoy swimming, sailing, diving, waterskiing and of course fishing. Situated on the North side of the waters you will find the marina “de Wilgenhoek” were Flexible Carpfishing is residing.

Because the waters have been used for sand extraction in the 1970-ies the depth has increased dramatically, at some places up to 60 meters.

This fact makes the Vinkeveense Plassen an excellent habitat for all freshwater fish, carp in particular.

You will find mostly common carp, mirror carp and leather carp in the area, but there are also grass carps around. The average weight of a carp is around 20 pounds, but catching a record carp weighing 40 pounds or more is a true possibility.
