The rise in the price of tickets lake fishing
The price of fishing tickets on Lake Balaton will increase by more than ten percent on average next year, the CEO of Balaton Halgazdálkodási Nonprofit Zrt. Said in Gyenesdiás on Thursday.
Summarizing what was said at the sixth Balaton fishing conference, Zsolt Szári told MTI: the price of fishing tickets had not been changed for nine years, so the arrangement was necessary.
The price increase will be somewhat higher than ten percent, but not uniformly, as there will be ticket types whose prices will remain unchanged, he said.
The CEO called it one of the biggest achievements of the past years, that this year the fish management company "wasted in 2009", the fish ponds representing about 1,200 hectares of water surface, were put into asset management. These provide a solid basis for the supply of geographically protected Balaton fish that goes to restaurants.
He added that the Balatoni Halgazdokászi Nonprofit Zrt. was given the right to manage the fish ponds in the area for 20 years.
To MTI's question, Zsolt Szári said: the number of fishermen in Hungary exceeds 500,000. A significant number of them, nearly a hundred thousand anglers, visit Lake Balaton every year, which they see as their fishing spot either permanently or as a tourist destination.
