General - rules

  • Trolling/trawling means that bait is carried by boat and these methods are not included in free hand gear fishing. According to the law, whoever has started fishing in a place must be given priority. This means, among other things, that the trolling/trawling fisherman must give way or give priority to the land fisherman.
  • The angler is a fishing device that is attached to the ice.
  • Roach huts must be marked with a white, red or yellow ball with name, phone number and TDA number. Maximum two days of fishing at a time.
  • Bait nets under supervision, maximum 10 m long, maximum 10 mm mesh. Local rules are stated for each area, see the maps.
  • When you TDA fish, take into account commercial and domestic fishing. Fishing closer than 100 m from commercial gear and fish farms is prohibited.
  • Avoid busy boat routes and pay attention to military and biological protection areas.
  • We also recommend that you limit your catch to 3 fish of the species zander, pike, trout in the archipelago and 3 zander in Lake Mälaren per day.
  • Minimum dimensions and current fishing legislation must be followed, see svenskafiskeregler.
  • Fish caught below the minimum size must be immediately released back to the place of capture.
  • The TDA fishing license is personal.
  • Identification must be presented together with the fishing license.
