We have an inspection fee, 2,000 sek for violations of the association's rules.

Examples of violations covered by the inspection fee are: • when a fisherman has caught fish that are too small or too large, i.e. violated the association's rules on minimum or maximum size • when a fisherman with an annual card or equivalent violates the rules on closed season that apply to a certain part of the card's validity period • when a fisherman fishes within a protected area, for example a spawning bay that the association wants to protect and where the protected area borders an area where fishing is permitted • when a fisherman uses unauthorized bait or bait or an unauthorized number of gear • unmarked or incorrectly marked gear with a known owner, if the association has decided that equipment should be marked in a certain way
