FISCHGUT PRIMUS

In 1926 the then general director of Thyssen built the Fischgut Bräke in the scenic Grünertal valley in Iserlohn. The plant was used for the reproduction and rearing of salmonids. The fish farm flourished until the 1950s. As a result of several sales and changes of tenants it became calmer around the fish farm... Lothar Primus, born on 01.12.1965 in Iserlohn is a trained fish farmer. In 1987 he took over a partially abandoned fish farm in Iserlohn. In the first years, the main task was the reconstruction of the pond facilities for the production of salmonids and the direct marketing with smokehouse. In 1991 a branch for the production of edible fish was leased in Hövelhof. To increase production and successively expand his product range, he began breeding salmon and the first sturgeon production in 1993. After very good successes in the breeding of some sturgeon species, the breeding was extended to ornamental fish, especially to koi carp.
