The fishing water owners decided at the annual general meeting to ban live bait on fishing boats in the lake. The ban will apply from June 1, 2026.

The fishing water owners ask all fishermen to report all their fishing and catch. Reporting is important for the lake's long-term fisheries management plan.

The card is valid for hand gear fishing and trolling with a maximum of two rods, as well as for ice fishing with a maximum of 10 fishing rods or ice bait rods.
