Canoe Fishing License
Dalsland & Värmland

Fish in a number of lakes while you're on a paddle trip

Your Canoe Fishing License authorizes you to fish with a rod, fly and spin and no more than two rods per canoe.

The card is personal. It should be kept while you are fishing, and should be shown on request to a supervisor or owners of the fishing rights. Children under the age of 12 may fish without a fishing license but must be accompanied by an adult who has a valid fishing license. Violations of current regulations will be prosecuted and the card will be revoked. The minimum size for salmon, trout and char is 60 cm. All salmon and trout species are protected from 1 September until the end of the year.
