The fishing card applies to Vika fishing conservation area (see map) and can be purchased as an annual card, weekly card or day card. Holders may use hand gear, fishing tackle and otherwise according to the fishing council's decision but not fixed fishing gear.

One card - one rod!!! Two cards - two rods!!! Etc... This applies to all waters (max 15 fishing tackle/fishing tackle/card). The catch quota does NOT increase when purchasing more cards, only the number of gear.

For trolling, see Runnkort.

Children under 16 years of age fish for free in Vikasjön and Vika's part of Runn. The same catch limit and gear apply as for ONE fishing card.

Boating ban applies in St. Acktjärn and Mörttjärnen (floating ring that is carried out with frog legs allowed).

Fishing ban in St. Acktjärn, L:a Lönnvattnet, Mörttjärnen 1/11 -24/12.

In St. Acktjärn, Lilla Lönnvattnet and Mörttjärnen, a catch limit of 2 noble fish per day applies.

The catch limit in Vikasjön & Runn is 5 pike per day and a maximum length of 80 cm (to protect the breeding pike).

For pike perch, 2 fish per day between 50 - 70 cm apply. The closed season on Vikasjön between 1 May - 15 June means that all pike perch caught during this period must be released gently.

Perch over 40cm must be released as gently as possible.

No exchange of fishing licenses. If you have reached the "bag limit", you are done fishing for the day. 

In 2024, new rules were introduced on Lake Runn in Falun regarding pike-perch fishing. The rules mean that all pike-perch during the period May 15 - June 28 must be released. In Vikasjön, the conservation period is May 1 - June 15. The purpose of the conservation period is to ensure a viable pike-perch population in the future. The current conservation periods coincide with the pike-perch spawning period and we ask all fishermen on the lake to respect the rules so that we can maintain a good population of pike-perch to fish in other parts of the year.

The conservation period May 15-June 28 applies to the entire area that concerns Runn including Ösjön and Liljan, while on Vikasjön it applies May 1 - June 15.

Total ban on fishing with so-called "LiveScope", "Mega Live" and "ActiveTarget" echo sounders.

The card is personal but applies to spouse, cohabitant and children under 16 years of age.

Spouse, cohabitant or child under 16 years of age then fishes with the same catch quota as the card holder.

Långtjärn and Sågsjön are leased by Vika sportfiskeklubb

(this card does not apply, contact the club if interested).

Violation of these rules entails a control fee of 1500 SEK.

NOTE! Fishing license must be carried and presented upon request.

In case of suspected illegal fishing, contact the supervisor or the board Tel.Ordf: 070-579 75 26
