Trout fishing at “Hondón Trucha”, unique in the province of Alicante and the Communidad Valencia.
At our fishery ¨Hondón Trucha¨ you can angle with fly, floater or spinning.
The artificial
fishing lake is situated 15 kilometers from Elche/ELX and 20 minutes from
Alicante Airport.
The little
village of Hondon de las Nieves (The Valencian name is called El Fondó de les
Neus) on the foot of the Sierra de Crevillente is the
perfect environment for the lake. As it lies 400 meters above sea level, the
temperature is approx. 5°C lower than on the coast.
In wintertime we even have frost during the night. During the summer the temperature of the water is too high for trout, so we close the fishery.
¨Hondon Trucha¨ is complete fenced and we have our own car park, so it is a SAFE place to fish for individual anglers.
“Hondón Trucha” lies in walking distance from the village and for example on Wednesday or Saturday your partner can visit the local market or buy some wine in our local bodegas while you are fishing. For those who want to have a short stay in our guest room, in your own caravan or mobile home, you can find information on www.freewebs.com/kampereninspanje/ .
The sculpture garden with marble sculptures carved by Jan is open every Friday and Saturday from 10.00 - 14.00 hours, entrance free. Info on this International Artist Page .
Our lake is approx. 60 x 45 meters, surrounded with artificial grass and easy to reach. Also suitable for disabled anglers. Refreshments are available from our canteen, but you are welcome to bring your own. Outside the canteen we have some marble tables, giving you a beautiful view of the lake and the village. This is also the barbeque zone for afternoon reservations.
Trout fishing is all action. You must entice the fish to bite and this is only possible by searching constantly for the right bait.
Trout fishing with fly, floater or spinner; in all ways you have to remain active. Trout fishing is relaxing. Nobody cares what you have or what you are: you are an angler. After a good morning fishing you can go to restaurant TRENCACLOSQUES in the village square, where they prepare your just caught trout in a few ways.
To those who are not familiar with trout fishing Jan is willing to explain how to do it. Everyone who likes to fish or just wants to have a look, is welcome.
