Welcome to your fishing holiday in Norway! The coastal fish stocks in Norway are under pressure and we need to increase our efforts to ensure that future generations will also be able to enjoy fishing as a sport or recreation in Norway. The fish in the sea are free for all, but we have a goal to safeguard fish stocks for the future. You are therefore very welcome to fish for free in Norwegian sea waters, provided that you follow a set of simple rules:

  •    Foreign tourists may only use handheld tackle when fishing in the sea. Tourists are not permitted to make use of nets, pots, traps, lines etc.
  •    Export quota: From 1 January 2021, new rules apply to how much fish can be taken from Norway as a recreational fisher. Basically, you can bring 18 kilos per Person max. 2x in the year,  if you fish under the direction of a registered tourist fishery business and fill in the catch forms. more: https://fiskeridir.no/Turistfiske 
  •     You must keep a distance of more than 100 metres from the closest fish farm when fishing. All boat traffic shall keep a distance of at least 20 metres from fish farms and moorings for fish farms.
  •     Foreign tourists are not permitted to sell the fish they catch.
  •     Comply with the regulations for minimum size of fish.

The Directorate of Fisheries is happy to answer any questions in English, Russian or Norwegian. Contact us by email at info@fiskeridir.no.

Minimum sizes for salt water fish 

There are minimum fish size regulations. The objective of these regulations is to allow small fish to survive so that they can mature enough to reproduce.

If you catch a fish which is smaller than the minimum size, you must wet your hands with sea water and carefully free the fish from the fishing tackle then release it back to sea. If the fish is dead or not capable of surviving, you can keep it to eat. In order to avoid catching a number of fish under the minimum size, you can for example move to a new fishing area or try using larger fish hooks.

A complete table of minimum fish sizes is provided here https://lovdata.no/dokument/SF/forskrift/2004-12-22-1878?q=#KAPITTEL_11 

King crab and coastal seal hunting

Tourists are not permitted to take part directly in catching king crab but a certain quota has been allocated to the tourist fishing industry in Finnmark.

Tourists with an approved marksman licence are permitted under certain conditions to take part in seal hunting on the coast, together with Norwegian citizens.

Enquire at your place of accommodation whether they have necessary quotas and permits if you want to take part in king crab fishing and coastal seal hunting.
