Foxen Stora Le FVOF Generally: A fishing license is required to fish within the waters of the Foxen and Struven-Stora Le fisheries conservation areas. The fishing license is personal and may not be transferred. Only hand tools are allowed. The fishing license does not give the right to crayfish fishing. People 16 years of age and younger are allowed to fish without a fishing license. A control fee of SEK 1,000 may be charged upon inspection if a valid fishing license cannot be presented. Areas with restricted fishing rights: Within the fishing license area, there are 2+1 areas where fishing is not permitted for fishing license sales. 1 - Northern part of Foxen 2 - Fish Farm V:a Fågelvik In these 2 areas, fishing is not permitted during the period May 1 - October 31 except for fishing right holders and buyers of Local Cards. 3 - The area around the Holmerud River. Fishing rights are required within Stuven-Stora Le FVOF. All trout caught there must be released back. Methods: Only hand tools are allowed. When trolling, a maximum of 4 rods per fishing license applies. For other fishing, a maximum of 2 rods per loose fishing license and no deep rigs or paravanes apply. Catch restrictions: Maximum length of pike 80 cm. Minimum size for pike-perch is 45 cm. Max 2 pike perch and 2 pikes per day and angler. Closed season for pike-perch with pike-perch fishing ban; May 1 - June 15. Minimum size for trout/salmon is 60 cm. Other rules: Crayfish fishing has been prohibited since January 1, 2020, according to the County Administrative Board's decision. Fishing license and local card: For fishing rights holders, fishing is free within the area. Fishing rights certificates (fishing cards) do not need to be issued for fishing rights holders; it is sufficient to be able to state your name and which property you have fishing rights through when checked. As a fishing rights holder, you can bring guests with you for free. Those who live within the fisheries management area but do not have fishing rights can buy a local card. Fishing supervision: This is done through some of the association's appointed supervisors. Fishing supervision may also be hired out. Fishing: Ownership of fishing rights is separate from ownership of water and shore. This means that you are not automatically a fishing right owner just because you own a piece of a lake or a piece of shore. To have fishing rights, this right must be registered in the property register. It is not enough that fishing is mentioned in the purchase contract. Changes to fishing rights can only be made through an act by Lantmäteriet. The fishing right follows the village boundaries. You can therefore have fishing rights without having beach rights or water rights and you can have fishing rights outside the shore of another property. If the fishing is undivided, you have the right to fish anywhere in the village's fishing waters, regardless of which property it is located outside. When a fisheries management area is established, a fishing rights investigation is carried out and a fishing rights list is prepared. These documents report which properties have fishing rights in the fisheries management area, whether the fishing rights are individual (divided) or joint (undivided) and what proportion each property has of the fisheries management area's fishing waters.

We do not sell permits here! Unfortunately, iFiske does not sell permits for this organisation; here you will only find information about this fishing water. We naturally hope to be able to offer permits in Foxens FVOF in the future. Fishing rights f&o ... Fishing rights are managed by the fisheries management area associations, which consist of the areas' fishing-right owners. To fish in any of the areas' different waters, a permit is therefore required. The overall permit covers most waters, but certain waters also have special permits. Find out what applies in the relevant water before you start fishing. All fishing in flowing water is prohibited. Note that fishing is not generally permitted in the northern part of Foxen (Töcksfors) and the area around the fish farm in V:a Fågelvik during the period 1 May - 31 October; see Map and Rules for details. Foxen and Stora Le hold fine stocks primarily of pike and perch, but also of several different species of white fish. Other species occurring that are of interest to sport anglers are trout and salmon, although primarily in the southern parts of the area, as well as zander. It is above all extraordinary fishing for large-grown pike that attracts sport anglers to Foxen and Stora Le. Individuals approaching 15 kg and sometimes above this are caught here annually. After pike fishing, it is perch fishing that attracts, as they too grow very large in the lakes. Struven/Stora Le and Foxens fisheries management areas safeguard long-term sustainable fishing, so do not retain more fish than you need. Larger fish should always be released as carefully as possible. For current information on rules, permits and contact details, you must always read the information on the area's notice boards and on the information boards at each fishing water. Fishing tourism: Within the two fisheries management areas, you can catch, among other things, pike, perch, burbot, trout, whitefish, zander, bream, roach and some other white fish. Pike fishing is most easily carried out from a boat in summer and early autumn. In Stora Le it is possible to launch a boat at a launching ramp at Holmerudsfors harbour. There is also a natural ramp at Gördsbysand, situated on the road between Selen and Fölsbyn. There is also a ramp in Lennartsfors and one at Sandviken in Töcksfors. Foxen, Stora Le Free fishing for children and young people up to and including the age of 16. Both Struven/Stora Le and Foxens fisheries management areas were formed in 1991 with the purpose of promoting and developing fishing and fisheries management, working with usable management of the resource, and granting certain fishing to the public. The associations prioritise environmentally beneficial measures intended to improve the habitat in our many fishing waters. A joint permit for the two areas was introduced in 2020, which applies in waters within the original boundaries of Struven/Stora Le and Foxens fisheries management areas, with certain exceptions.
