First Class Flyfishing Lodge near Hollenstein a.d. Ybbs
Private access to Ybbs section Lapplander – TOP grayling and brown trout area

Managed by Christian Bienert since 2022.

Fly fishing is our passion. Management is our mission.

Christian Bienert is a passionate fly fisherman and guide. He has been traveling around the world for more than 30 years and has now put his experience into practice in the upper Ybbs valley between Opponitz and Hollenstein. A perfect fly-fishing chalet lodge and a private section of the Ybbs. Top-class management and therefore one of the best sections of the Ybbs for grayling and brown trout. Peace and quiet for the fish, sustainable management of the area and high-quality accommodation offer a unique fly fishing experience.

The Lodge

Lapplander Lodge Ybbs

The fly fishing lodge in a secluded location in the upper Ybbstal with 85m² offers space for 4 fly fishermen. Rental only weekly SO-SA. Fishing in the Ybbs section Lapplander only possible for house guests on 2 days.

 

Grayling

The Lapplander fishing area is characterized by a very high density of capital grayling. The secret: peace, food, water structure

Brown trout

The Lapplander section is characterized by a structure that provides perfect shelter for brown trout. Furthermore, there is a good supply of forage fish, so that large numbers of natural brown trout are stable in the area. No stocked fish!

The Lapplander Lodge is situated directly on the Ybbs in a secluded location.

Why fish with Lapplander on the Ybbs?

Both the lodge and the private waters meet the high standards for passionate fly fishermen.
The ultimate goal is to provide the perfect fishing opportunity and stay, with all the comforts that are unique to the region.
Limited fishing in the private Lapplander area (2 days per week) and access to various fishing grounds on the Ybbs and the region offer 5 to 6 days of the best fly fishing during your stay.

The private territory

The section is 400m away from the lodge and has only been fished by me and my son Julian so far. We are opening the area to “house guests” for the first time in a limited form in 2025. May to November, only Tuesday and Thursday. This ensures that the fish can continue to rest and recover and that subsequent fishermen don’t have any “spooky” fish. The district is characterized by probably the best grayling and brown trout stock on the Ybbs. This is under the long-standing management philosophy of “no external stocking”.
