LAKE KATLOV

A paradise for carp anglers

Lake Katlov is located in the Central Bohemian Region, approximately 14 km from Kutná Hora, close to the village of Červené Janovice. It is located at an altitude of 446 m above sea level and covers an area of 25 hectares.

Its average depth is 2.5 metres, but the lake bottom is very rugged. There are three large islands, dozens of underwater benches, shallows, fields of aquatic plants and a five-metre depth at the dam. Fourteen piers have been built around the entire lake, which serve as natural swims for fishing. The other three fishing piers are in the area of the back dam and are classic grass banks. The fishing stations are approximately 100 metres apart, so all fishermen are guaranteed their peace of mind by the water.

Our experienced guides will take care about you, your comfort and successful fishing.


HISTORY
LAKES OF KATLOV

The origins of the lake date back to the Middle Ages. According to legend, "Katlov" derives from the name of the imperial executioner who had fishing rights in the lake.

Furthermore, it is known from archives that Katlov has not only served as a lake in the past, but also as a fertile field. The last time the lake was used for such purposes was in 1901. The lake used to consist of the Small and the Big Katlov, which were later merged by the fishery authorities. This not only created a large island, but also the largest lake in the region around Kutná Hora.
