Florian Läufer

Born in 1970, Florian Läufer has been fishing since his early youth. He began with competitive angling, but this came to an end due to the requirement to kill all catches. Over time, he has developed into a renowned all-rounder with a penchant for the exotic, catching fish on almost all continents, which also led to his illustrated book "Fascination Angling". For several years now, he has been a permanent contributor to the specialist magazine "Rute & Rolle" and collaborates with the company Hardy & Greys. He also publishes in "Carp Mirror", "Carp Connect" and "Cat-Connect". His photos have appeared in numerous fishing calendars. Florian Läufer is now known as one of the best German angling photographers.
