Fishing near Schiedam, South Holland

Schiedam sits in the heart of South Holland's dense river delta, where the Nieuwe Maas runs just 2 km from the city centre and a web of canals, polderwater and tidal rivers fans out in every direction. The Rijn-Schiekanaal and the Rotte are well-regarded local fisheries, and the Noordvestgracht canal runs through Schiedam itself. Further out, the Haringvliet and Hollandsch Diep open up bigger-water fishing for those willing to travel a short distance.
