Fisketegn
Remember that when fishing, you must have a valid fishing licence if you are between 18 years of age and until you are retired (typically 67 years). In freshwater, the owner of the fishing water must give permission to fish, even if you have purchased an angling licence. However, fish parks do not require a state fishing licence. You can only buy a fishing licence at www.fisketegn.dk - If you fish without a valid fishing licence, you risk being fined. Fishing licences can only be purchased online and no longer at tourist offices, petrol stations, etc.
