Fishing industry in SwitzerlandLandlocked Switzerland supports a small commercial fishing industry in its many large lakes. About 200 fishermen nationally ply them in small boats, supplemented by fish farmers who largely raise trout and some carp. The former catch primarily perch and whitefish, with pike, lake trout and Arctic char making up significant portions of the country's annual catch. Angling is also popular, while fish processing is marginal, largely limited to making fish oil for the country's drug industry.
