Dragerup, or the Seamining Station as the northern piece is called, is another classic in the string of popular spots along the west side of the Isefjord.
Here is an incredibly exciting and varied bottom, and here you can find fish throughout the stretch.
You can advantageously fish from the parking at Bredetved and all the way up to the Seamining Station itself.

Bottom conditions
Rocks

Even though walking around on rocks along the coast may feel annoying, it’s often a good indicator of the presence of optimal bottom conditions for the sea trout and its food options. Everything from pebble to huge chunks of granite provides cover for sand hoppers, shrimp, and small fish. If there are waves, these food options are easily whirled up into the water column. A rocky bottom can be good all year round, but especially so during the cold months with few food options in the deeper water. A rocky bottom at a good depth also attracts other predatory fish such as cod and garfish.

Mud

The muddy and soft bottoms are often found in inlets, fjords, and brackish areas where outflow from rivers or drainage canals has transported sediment for many years. At the right times of year, these areas offer some fantastic fishing. From late fall till spring, the soft bottoms tend to be where the sea trout, for instance, can easily find food such as bristle worm, goby, and shrimp, since this type of bottom is a good heat insulator during winter.

Bladder wrack

Along with the eelgrass, bladder wrack is the most prevalent aquatic plant along the Danish shores. This seaweed attaches itself to smooth surfaces such as rocks, gravel, and other variations on the bottom. The bladder wrack is a good hiding place for food options and fish. Bottom conditions with bladder wrack are good indicators of fish being nearby.

Eelgrass

This aquatic plant functions as a brilliant hiding place for the small food options, and simultaneously they oxidize the water around them, which provides small fish, shrimp, and sand hoppers with good living conditions. The eelgrass is also used as a resting place for the sea trout when it migrates along the coasts and particularly in late fall when the trout are headed for the river.

4 ørreder på tre timer

Mit første besøg i Isefjoden gav mig 4 ørreder i starten af november. To tre fulgte med ind og genudsat, og den første røg hurtigt af. Jeg fiskede lidt syd for Dragerup (Bredetved strand). Knædybt vand helt inde ved bredden. Man behøver ikke gå længere ud end et par meter. Men waders er nødvendige pga de mange siv langs bredden. Der er ikke meget plads til parkering nede ven vandet. Et godt sted, og jeg kommer nok igen en anden gang.
