License Requirements. German Nationals and expatriates living and working in Germany (NATO/US Military Excluded) must complete months of instruction on fish habitat and biology, fishing regulations, and general knowledge before they can be tested and become licensed fishermen. Yes, I do mean tested. Anything and everything from the types of scales, number of eggs, and habitat of the different species to the required test of line required to catch them can be asked.
Ah, don’t get discouraged, there is good news. U.S. tourist and business travelers can fish in Germany using a temporary license and without the test. An "Auslander" (that’s a foreigner) can purchase a temporary fishing license in Bavaria that is good for three months. It costs 45 EUROs (about $25 depending on the exchange rate). Other states in Germany have similar systems in place to allow foreigners to fish. Just remember, once you have the fishing license you still have to pay for the right to fish, and all fish in season and of legal size must be killed immediately if they are going to be kept. It is also considered cruel to use stringers and other similar devices.
U.S. military personnel stationed in Germany (states of Hessen, Baden-Wurttemburg, and Bavaria) must complete a 2 week (30 hour) course that covers much of the same information the Germans learn. Our U.S. military members must also take and pass a 100 or so question test before they can purchase a German fishing license at the local city hall (Rathaus). The regular license costs approximately 50 EUROs per year depending on where you purchase it

I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
