Velká Dálka

a legendary carp water

Velká Dálka, a 2-hectare pond, lies in the picturesque South Bohemian countryside. A forest track leads to the pond and the place is literally out of reach of civilisation — ideal for anyone who wants peace, nature and top-class fishing.

There are only two fishing swims on the pond. They are more than 200 metres apart, so you can be sure of complete peace. By arrangement, the whole pond can also be booked for a single group of anglers.

More than 1,000 carp roam the water, dozens of them over 15 kg, with the biggest reaching up to 22 kg. Besides carp, the pond is also home to tench, grass carp and sturgeon.
