In the event of net fishing, the fee is 4000 SEK. In the event of repeated offenses, suspension from fishing for the fishery conservation area may occur. Examples of violations of the fishing association's rules: Fishing with two rods at the same time, and using powerbait: Inspection fee 1 extra rod 1000 SEK + use of powerbait 1000 SEK, total inspection fee 2000 SEK. 2 fish over maximum quota - each fish is counted as a violation each, so inspection fee 1000 SEK + 1000 SEK gives a total inspection fee of 2000 SEK.
