What rules apply to fishing in lakes and streams in the Vejle area?

Fishing rights in lakes and streams generally belong to the landowner. You may therefore only fish if you have the owner's permission, a valid fishing permit for the water in question, or are fishing in an area where fishing is free.

If you are between the age of 18 and retirement age, you generally also need a Danish national angling licence. This does not apply to put and take lakes, where you instead pay for the right to fish directly at the individual lake.

Local rules may also apply regarding fishing permits, closed seasons, minimum sizes, catch restrictions and the use of bait fish. Always check the rules for the specific fishing water before fishing.
