A life for the lake<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Early in the morning, when the mist still lies over the Wallersee and the water glistens calmly, they are already on their way: the O-fishermen, the Kapeller family, custodians of the Wallersee and its treasures for over 130 years. Four generations, united by the water, the fish - and the love of their craft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christoph Kapeller, now the head of the business, runs the fishery with his wife. Every morning, he goes out on the Wallersee with his father Christian and grandfather Christian senior. His wife runs the small, fine \"Frischfisch-Ladl\", where customers can buy freshly caught specialities every day. Also there: Noah, Christoph's son. Although he is just ten years old, he knows the Wallersee better than many adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Fishing with passion on the Wallersee<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Grandfather Christian senior, now a proud 96 years old, still goes out on the lake every day despite his age. \"As long as I'm still standing, I'll go too,\" he says with a mischievous smile as he steers the Zille - the traditional fishing boat - to the jetty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot has changed over the decades, he says, \"but the water has always stayed with us.\"<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The O-Fishermen from Wallersee<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There used to be many professional fishermen around the lake, but over time most of them withdrew. The Kapellers gradually took over the rights on the Fischach - the outflow of the lake - and became the O-fishermen. The name is derived from 'Achfischer' and gives the Kapeller family fishing rights on the Fischach, the outflow of the Wallersee near Seekirchen. Today, O-Fischer supplies well-known catering establishments such as Restaurant Winkler with fresh pike, zander, whitefish, perch - and seasonally also carp. Anything that does not come directly from the lake is farmed on the premises. A sustainable circular economy that tastes good - and works.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

If you want, you can even venture out onto the lake yourself in summer: rowing boats and electric boats are available at the Kapeller family's jetty. A little adventure for anyone who wants to experience what it means to live with the lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
