Fishing and hunting in Sk책ne
Exciting and relaxing fishing and hunting experiences
Fishing in Skåne There are few regions that can offer as broad a variation of sport fishing as Skåne. Sea and coastal fishing are free, and a license for more than thirty rivers and around forty lakes is inexpensive. Some fifteen boats make daily fishing tours along the coast facing Denmark, taking hopeful fishermen out into an Öresund Sound teeming with fish. On the eastern side of the region, Hanöbukten Bay offers world-class trolling for sea trout and salmon. You can find out more about licenses, put-and-take waters, fishing boats and sport fishing matters at www.skane.com Fishing from the Skåne countryside Why not combine a fishing holiday – with family, friends or colleagues – with a stay on a farm? As of the 2007 season, Skåne has ten new agricultural companies that offer farm accommodation combined with quality fishing in both ponds and natural waters. Most of these also carry fishing equipment for hire, and many arrange other nature-based activities as well, including hiking the Skåneleden Trail, riding trips and autumn hunting.
1) Agda Lund Bed & Breakfast Guided sea angling trips for sea trout in Österlen. One of Skåne’s best stretches of coastal water for sea trout is within walking distance of Kivik. At Agda Lund, sea anglers can book accommodation with breakfast, packed lunch and a fishing guide who, depending on the water temperature and the direction of the wind, will take you to the coast’s top fishing spots. There are also drying facilities for waders and the opportunity to freeze your catch. +46 (0)414 701 75 • www.agdalund.se
2) Almarkaröd Ekoturism Here you can catch fish and crayfish in East Lake Svansjön and West Lake Svansjön.

Those with hunting licenses can even hunt small game and ducks in season on the nearly 100 acres belonging to the farm. +46 (0)415 621 19, +46 (0)702 30 11 47 s.carl@telia.com
3) Furustadgården The farm lies by the north-eastern part of Lake Ivösjön, a classic Skåne fishing spot. At its deepest, the lake goes 50 metres down and some is still uncharted. The usual catch is large pike, zander and perch, but there are also salmon trout, Canada trout, Gullspång salmon and rainbow trout. When the lakes freeze, superb ice fishing takes over. Motor boats and equipment can be hired at Furustadgården, and a professional guide with a boat and trolling equipment is also available. Comfortable accommodation sleeps up to seven in a three-room, self-catering guesthouse near the main house. +46 (0)44 940 91, +46 (0)44 944 56, +46 (0)705 47 42 99 www.humleslingan.com/furustadsgarden
