SALMON CATCH STATISTICS - RIVER VARDE
|
| The
statistics for the river Varde is very reliable since reporting |
|
on catches is required within 4 days. This rule applies to all - |
| Fishing Association members as well as
Anglers buying a daily |
| fishing permit. |
| |
| Since, at the
moment, the fishing authorities would like to build |
| a bigger and more
sustainable stock of salmons certain quotas |
| are in place by
this river permitting just 1 salmon per year per |
| Angler. Furthermore a
total of 130 salmon is the maximum catch |
| permitted for the
whole of the river. When this figure is reaches all |
| fishing becomes
catch-and-release. Season by river Varde is from |
|
1. April - 31. October |
