Gothemsån

The fishing route in Gothemsån at Åminne extends from the highway bridge (road 146) and downstream to a straight line between the Gothemsån estuary headlands, a distance of approximately 1.3 km.

The area is open for fishing all year round and the close connection to the sea means that there are great opportunities for varied fishing for several different species and with different methods.

Historically, the Gothemsån is perhaps best known for its ide fishing during early springs, but the river also usually contains species such as pike, perch, rudd, roach, rudd and tench.

Please note that it is not permitted to catch any pike or trout and from 1/3-31/5 all perch must also be released back. At other times, a maximum catch of 3 perch under 30 cm per fisherman per day applies.

The Gothemsån River and its tributaries constitute large and important areas for sea trout to reproduce.

During the autumn, sea trout migrate up the river with their sights set on spawning. It is common for sea trout to stay in the river both before and after spawning, which can lead to some getting hooked.

If you hook a trout, it should always, without exception, be released!
