Tips from experienced anglers

  1. 1Bjugn lies south of 62°N. That means a 40 cm minimum size for cod and 32 cm for haddock, and halibut is protected year-round in this zone.
  2. 2With open 17- and 19-foot boats, keep fishing within Trondheimsleia and Bjugnfjord in good weather. Check the forecast and wave height before every trip.
  3. 3As a tourist on a rental boat, catch must be reported under current rules. The export quota is 15 kg of fish or fish products per person aged 12 and above.
