RULES AND REGULATIONS

It is the responsibility of every fisherman to inform themselves about the applicable regulations and limits.


The fish disease PKD (Proliferative Nephritis) has been detected in fish caught in Kultsjön.

This means that the Marslidens Fishing Conservation Area Association is issuing supplementary requirements for everyone who visits our water.

No boats/trailers outside our fishing limits may be launched into our water without prior complete cleaning inside and out. The same applies to fishing gear etc. that has been used in other waters, they must also be cleaned well before they can be used in our water.

PKD is spread by a spore, Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, and occurrences are notifiable to SVA. The spore is probably spread exclusively via infected water to new water areas through equipment that is frequently exposed to water.

We can do no more than introduce these rules with the hope of continuing to keep our water free from the impact.

A clarification about Char and Trout, these are slowly regrowing after many years of declining existence. Hook lightly and release, a reasonable catch fits in a frying pan, so with mutual purposefulness, we together provide better conditions for future experiences. Other species are not covered by this.

During the summer, there are a couple of calls and prohibitions that are intended to create a calm and pleasant environment for everyone on and around the lake.

With regard to our water and our common endeavor, we would like to see caution when we are on the lake.

With regard to how bottom sediments build up over time and the problems when they are torn up, we would like to encourage reflection.  We would like to see the old, malfunctioning gasoline engines replaced with electric ones, all to limit emissions into the water area.

When it comes to play equipment in the form of jet skis and boats with powerful engines, a total ban applies throughout the water area. The reason is that these are tearing up the deeper anaerobic bottom sediments to a large extent, which are toxic and have a strong negative impact on the fish's food.

1. The fishing license is valid for ice sticks, casting, fly and fishing rods, trawling from a boat. and fly casting with a maximum of 3 flies. 1 gear, maximum 3 hooks, per fisherman

5. NOTE, maximum daily quota: 5 game fish. Free other species. All worming / feeding is prohibited. Fish guts / organic remains must be buried. Can also be left as food waste at the Municipality's recycling stations.

The Fisheries Conservation Association's call for responsibility.

There are a number of different diseases that can affect fish. It can therefore be good to know the most common ones and how to handle sick or dead fish. Disease symptoms in fish can occur for many different reasons, for example through infection by bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, or poor water conditions as a result of hot summers. Fish diseases are extremely rarely transmitted to humans, and in cases where they do occur, the main cause is the consumption of raw or insufficiently cooked fish that has carried infectious agents.

Therefore, use common sense and be careful with hygiene. Cleaning the fish immediately after catching is one way to effectively reduce the risk of infection. Also remember that fish is a perishable product that should be stored in the refrigerator if it is not frozen. Wounds on fish can have several different causes. Mechanical injuries are caused, for example, by predators or mishooking and are recognized by the “torn” appearance. Mechanical injuries easily infect, which quickly changes the wound appearance and makes it easy for bacteria to gain a foothold. In a weakened state, fish can also be affected by fungus. Sea lice are parasitic crustaceans that attack fish; these parasites bite holes in the fish's skin and suck blood. The parasite's attack causes damage to the skin and can lead to secondary infections with bacteria or fungi.

The fish tapeworm has fish-eating warm-blooded animals as its main hosts, such as humans and rats, which then spread the parasite's eggs via their feces. The parasite's eggs hatch in water and develop into larvae when the parasite eggs are eaten by small crustaceans. The crustaceans are in turn eaten by various fish. These worms are sometimes also called seagull worms, as seagulls and crows easily spread these parasites over large geographical areas.

What can you do?

One of the most important and responsible measures you can take is to handle unwanted fish and fish guts in such a way that they cannot in any way return as food to anything in nature. Various methods such as incineration or proper burial are suitable, covered composts and packaging for municipal waste management are also fully viable. The cycle must be broken, the Fish Conservation Area Association is doing what they can and you as guests are doing what you can so together we minimize the unwelcome parasites.

To remember for everyone's well-being that safety and caution apply on our waters.
