Over the centuries and up to modern times, the rights for the fishing regions on Lake Wörthersee have been connected to and owned by family Huainigg. Historical literature tells that family Huainigg owned the fishing rights as far back as the 12th century and had to turn in tithe in the form of fish to the bishop and the church (the leaders of the cathedral in Maria Saal).
Today not only is the economic success of the fishing company a focal point, but also creating a sustainable and balanced fish population in the whole lake region.
Since the end of the 80’s family Huainigg, in particular Mr. Josef Huainigg sen., has been strongly involved in projects for hatching indigenous fish (lake whitefish, pike, etc.) for the purpose of preserving the fish population in Lake Wörthersee. Every year between approx. 6 and 10 million fish fry are indigenously hatched for the 1600 hectare surface area of Lake Wörthersee (divided into about 25 authorized fisheries). In the framework of this project fish spawn is gathered from Lake Wörthersee in December and fertilized and then brought to indigenous fish hatcheries on Lake Millstättersee, where they are hatched and reared to juvenile fish. In the spring, millions of juvenile fish are put into Lake Wörthersee. Only sustainable and consistent work in this area will ensure an ecologically balanced fish population in Lake Wörthersee in the future.
