Nykroppa-Storfors fiskevårdsförening leases about 50 lakes and ponds from Stora Enso Skog och Mark AB in southeastern Värmland in Storfors and Filipstad municipalities. (See map under PDF)

Västra Skärjen is one of the lakes that we lease and where we also conduct put & take fishing for rainbow trout and Gullspångsöring. Annually, about 2500kg of rainbow trout and 1500 kg of Gullspångsöring of high quality are released, weighing between 0.8kg - about 5 kg. The association does not conduct profitable operations in Västra Skärjen, but the goal is to release fish for all the income that the fishing licenses provide.

We have about 500 members in the association.
