Sea trout weekend
The annual Sea Trout Weekend always falls on the last weekend in September and attracts fishermen from several countries.
The tradition of fishing competitions started as early as 1979, when the organisation was founded.
At that time, the association had two annual competitions, one in spring and one in autumn, and back then the prizes were small and the competitions were almost exclusively local.
Since then, many fine fish have been added to the scales and the competitions have become one: an autumn competition, which always takes place on the last full weekend in September.
The prize money has grown in line with the number of participants, and today it is around DKK 40,000. Participants come from all over the country, but also from countries such as Germany, the Netherlands and England.
The Sea Trout Weekend on Ærø always takes place on the last full weekend in September.
