How is the fishing license valid?

Young people up to 16 years of age fish without a fishing license in the area's waters. Issued fishing licenses are valid from time to time or date to date. All fishing licenses are individual. Family licenses have been removed.

How much fish can I keep?

In waters that hold char/trout/rainbow, the rule is that only three (3) fish/day may be taken regardless of which fishing license the fisherman has, (also applies to children under 16 years of age, they may take 3 fish/day). No extra licenses are sold if you have fished all the way to keep more fish. If the family fishes on a family license, the adults may take 3 fish/day in total. If children under 16 years of age participate, they go beyond that and can keep 3 fish/day.

Sea fishing

When you have obtained a fishing license, you may practice sport fishing in all waters licensed for this purpose. The fishing license entitles you to fishing with a rod from the shore for the waters that we annually release fish into. You may only use one rod and includes angling, ice fishing, casting, spinning and fly fishing as well as a drag line mounted on a rod.

Lower river fishing

Boat fishermen always leave room when landowner fishing is in progress on seine warps. Boat fishermen leave room for fishermen at Hågestabron and along the shores. Rod ban on Hågestabron 20 m from the land side to enable boat passage. Fishermen on Hågestabron are allowed the right to use 2 rods as far as space allows. A single boat fisherman is allowed the right to use 2 rods, 2 fishermen in a boat can use 2 rods each. Max 4 rods/boat when fishing for salmon or sea trout. All jerk fishing with the aim of mishooking fish is prohibited within Sollefteå Fvo.
