The area's fishing waters consist of various lakes and streams with Dalälven and Bäsingen as the largest waters with pike, perch and whitefish as the largest populations.
Free fishing for children and adolescents up to the age of 15. Young people up to and including 15 years of age fish for free when angling from land with a top-knotted line, as well as when flounder fishing on ice.
Bäsingen's fisheries management area was established in 1987 and has its area in (Avesta) Södra Dalarna. The goal of this association is to strive for sustainable fishing but also carry out fisheries conservation measures.
