The upper limit is located about 500 meters upstream of the open-air swimming pool Fürstenfeld. The lower limit is at the Bagdy mill south of the Fürstenfeld town forest (GPS: 47.01270 North, 16.13119 East). Some short sections may only be fished on the right bank, because the Feistritz forms the town border or state border with Burgenland there, and therefore touches other fishing rights. The width varies from 10 to 20 meters. The river banks in the city area are easily accessible in many places. In some sections parking is possible next to the fishing spot, in other areas bicycle paths lead along the river. Pure nature is offered by the lowest 3 - 4 kilometers of the Feistritz, at the edge of the city forest.

The whole range of native predatory fish, especially pike and perch, but also zander and catfish are represented. The varied riparian and water structures ensure a high own occurrence. The fish find innumerable standing and spawning places behind exposed roots or sunken trees in the backwater areas.gravel banks in the faster flowing sections enable natural reproduction of gravel spawners, e.g. the nase.The Feistritz in Fürstenfeld is one of the most varied and species-rich flowing stretches in eastern Styria and at the same time the longest stretch in the district.
