Especially in the summer, you can fish very well in the Markdal. This is a great place to catch carp or bream.

And in the summer, also the beautiful sunsets.

This is a relatively small fishing location. De Kleine Beek is a ditch located near Zundert. Ditch may sound small, but the Kleine Beek runs through an area of 1.5 hectares. Here, you fish for breams such as rudd and white bream, but also for perch.

The ideal season for fishing in the canals is winter. This is when you have the best chance of catching predatory fish such as pike and zander. In winter, there are also fewer boats, and the fish become more visible and easier to catch. If you get hungry while fishing, you can quickly grab a tasty sandwich at one of the sandwich shops in the city centre.

Of course, it's the most fun to discover a nice spot for fishing in Breda yourself. There are plenty of places along small ditches, (side) rivers, and of course the canals. This way, you can find your favourite new fishing spot.
