The Långå fishing conservation area's association invests in Långåfisket being experienced as an interesting and well-visited sports fishing area. This applies to the fish and its living conditions, but also to those who fish and their motivation to satisfy their needs! The experience should be greater than just fishing!

The fishing culture is one of the quality concepts that is based on the three key words to preserve, nurture and use. We preserve the original species of precious fish. We take care of biotopes, fish stocks and contacts with anglers. We allow respectful use of fishing waters with our own responsibility and sense of belonging with the fisheries conservation association's mission. We create participation in the values ​​that exist by telling and describing our history. We collaborate with Långå Skans, a defense-historical cultural relic through the FISKELÄGET at Långå Skans.

Proceeds from the permits goes back to the fisherman by fishing management and investment. No dividend is paid to the owners. Villagers and many others volunteer for unpaid work that is worth several times more than the fee for the fishing license.

Of course, only sport fishing is allowed for those who bought a fishing license. No household fishing! Keeping a couple of fish for dinner and the trip home is reasonable. But no more! The rest is put back undamaged! Then there is good fishing also in the future!

Fisherman and fishing interest
One of the very many advantages of the interest in fishing is that it is ongoing all the time, the whole year. This in turn means that the framing, the conditions and the 'challenges’ switches and innovates experiences of new and more dimensions all the time. You can't ask for much more. Each period is used and at its end the longing for the next with its content and meaning is created. It never becomes monotonous unlike much else. And the interest in fishing fits with all ages and life situations. You are part of a larger context with its different content and renewal. It is a significant part of the content of life that arises from the harmonious balance between people- and natural values. An asset for the whole, long, life!
