Stock Photo - 19 November 2022, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Alt Schlagsdorf: GGGGGGFisher Walter Piehl (r) and his helpers are on the move on the special boats with the hauling net on Lake Neuschlagsdorf. Three weeks after the start of the carp season, however, the Christmas carp are not yet going into the net in Mecklenburg; only grass carp and pike are wriggling in the fishing gear. The weather is too warm and the fish are still too agile. Piehl, a 65-year-old former deep-sea fisherman, is one of the very few fishermen in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania who catch carp in natural lakes using hauling nets.
