• Fishing licenses are personal (except guest licenses). Only one card per person and fishing opportunity is valid. When inspected, fishermen are required to show identification. Fishing licenses can be withdrawn in the event of an offense. A fisherman who violates the rules can be fined with a control fee of 2000 SEK. • Protected zones: To protect the pike-perch, there are protected zones, see map! Storgrundet on Västerfjärden and the area north of Gösholmen on Körnikan are completely protected for fishing all year round and marked with 4 yellow cross-post buoys in the outer corners. Complementary red buoys are also located between the yellow cross-post buoys. Västergrundet and Skravelharen-Flygargrundet on Västerfjärden are protected from ice breaking - June 30. From July 1, the red buoys from these areas will be removed to clarify that fishing is now permitted there. These red buoys are then moved to the Storgrundets conservation area to clarify that this area is completely protected all year round. Please note that the map function shows where you are and where protected areas are located. In summer, the areas are marked with buoys. • Fishing from a boat is not allowed within the net prohibition zone in Gavelhytteviken from ice breaking up until June 30.
