Hey bro,

I did a bit of fishing in and around Seoul last year.
Some decent bass and carp fishing opportunities in the Han River and further afield.
Check out some of my Seoul fishing videos on youtube.

It's a little difficult to find good fishing infos and advise if you don't speak Korean.
There is a decent fishing shop in Jamsil and they can speak a little English and can probably help you getting the right gear.

The easiest way to get started would be to get some spin fishing gear and a few lures and try to catch bass at some of the fishing spots in my videos. You need a bit of patience. The fishing in Seoul is not that easy. You can also head to one of the fishing spots - especially the one in Jamsil and watch the locals fishing. You might even be able to find someone who can speak a little English at those spots.

Let me know if you got any questions. I'm happy to help you out with more infos.

cheers

Wow, I just found this web site an hour ago and told to myself to give it a go and to write something but honestly I didn’t expect such an efficient and fast answer.
Thank you so much and I will have a look at your videos . We keep in touch as I have many questions
Thank you
Nissan

LOL, yeah that was quite fast.
My wife is originally from Korea so we visit Seoul and the family every other year or so.
Last year I decided to explore some of the fishing opportunities and was actually quite surprised that there is some decent fishing right in the middle of such a massive city.

Welcome to fishingreminder! Banga Banga!
It might be really hot in Korea right now in summer! Great time to visit Han river park for fishing and Chi Mek at night!

No idea how it's pronounced in Korean, LOL
