Attention: Dangerous fishing hooks on Lake Böhringer threaten bathers!

Böhringer See, Radolfzell am Bodensee, Deutschland - Bathing in the Böhringer See could become a potential danger. According to a report of the Südkurier Fishing constructions appeared that can become a serious risk of injury for swimmers. The city of Radolfzell warned the population of these unauthorized devices.

The fishing hooks that were attached to short sticks and left in the grass not only give the impression of an invisible potential for hazard, but also have a questionable reputation. In the area of ​​the bridge, these constructions were found during controls when the bathroom was still closed. Fishing in the Böhringer See has been prohibited since 2018 after the fishing rights have previously been leased, which had led to garbage accumulation and unwanted tramps. Measures for organic pioneering aim to contain the algae growth by targeted fish trimmings, and therefore fishing was defined as a fish ideal that can be punished with prison term.

The measures of the city

The city plans to intensify the controls on Lake Böhringer. This was also made in a further contribution of the Radolfzell announced. The fellow citizens are asked to be attentive to suspicious activities. The tenant of the bathing business was also called to observe the bank line carefully. So far, such devices have been found without injuries, especially since no cause could be identified, which is why no complaint was filed.

Responsibility for situation management lies not only with the city, but also among the visitors of the lake. Regular water quality measurements by the environmental and nature department prove that the preservation of the ecological nature of the water has a top priority. A colorful fish stock of roach, eel, pike and other species was documented in a 2012 survey, and such stocks must be protected by avoiding illegal fishing.

The effects on nature

The use of waters not only brings dangers for the bathers, but also has far -reaching effects on the environment. A study by the IGB Berlin proves that leisure activities such as fishing or swimming can have negative consequences on plants, animals and water quality. People and dogs who run around on the bank can consider the ecosystem considerably.

The results show that in particular invertebrates suffer from animals and plants. It is therefore important to take measures to create undisturbed conditions. This also includes human -free protection zones that should serve as reference waters. Nature conservation policy can be decisively optimized through better knowledge of the effects of water use.
