Dutch term

visstek

Dutch to English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Telescopen zijn vooral interessant als je een vast punt in de gaten wilt houden; een nest bijvoorbeeld of een vaste visstek.
It's a photographic text, but this term is general.

fishing spot

Note from asker:
Sounds right, because what I omitted to mention is that in this case it's about photographing birds...
But I must say, van Dale gives some weird answers for stek! (gramatically weird)
Peer comment(s):

agree vic voskuil : because maybe this time the heron really will show up and a most riveting display of frog catching will unravel! (that's my take, no idea what could possibly be wrong with this answer)
