Umeälvens Forsfiskeområde

The area was opened up in 2015 when the villages of Baggböle, Klabböle, Brännland, Kåddis and Sörfors began to cooperate with a joint fishing license in the Umeälven within the Umeälven rapids fishing area (also called "Torrfåran"). Through the collaboration, the area has become more accessible to you fishermen, where a fishing license covers the entire fishing stretch on both sides of the river. Two so-called special sections are also connected to this area, the so-called Öringskanalen and Baggböleören, with separate cards.
