Fishermen’s paradise
Lake Tisza was created in the 1970s from the wild Tisza River in order to stop its floods. The lake stretches 127 square kms which makes it the second biggest lake in Hungary. Although it was created artificially, islands, the backwater and the swamps still remind tourists of the prehistoric landscapes. Its water comes from the river meaning 50 different fish species live there ( catfish, pike, bass, starlet, tench, different breams, carp, …). The huge amount of fish and the topic of fishing in this beautiful countryside come up every day in conversations here.
