The anglers' rules for the Pike branch apply and must be followed and are available to read. here.

Fishing methods

Allowed methods are spinning/reel fishing and fly fishing. All other methods including vertical fishing are not allowed.

● Only artificial baits may be used. Only barbless hooks are permitted.
● Only fishing with one rod per person is permitted, but you may have more rods ready-rigged in the boat.

Catch & Release

The Nordic River Pike Open is a pure catch & release competition. In other words, ALL pike must be released back.
Handle the fish as gently as possible!

● Be well prepared to land the fish (net, tongs, unhooking mat, etc).
● Land the fish as quickly as possible.
● Unhook the fish in the water; if this is not possible, lift the fish and place it on a gentle surface (unhooking mat).
● Minimize the fish's time above the water surface!
● If the fish must be weighed, always use a weighing net.

Measurement and Registration

The minimum length for pikes registered in the competition is 80 cm.
Fish to be registered in the competition must be photographed in the Fishy app as follows:

● 1 picture with the fish against the measuring board (the fish's mouth against the edge of the measuring board and the measuring scale clearly visible). In addition, the start number must be clearly included in the picture.
● Gäddan läggs på höger sida med vänster sida synlig. (Fenor får inte tryckas ihop, inga händer på stjärtfenan)
● 1 picture where the catcher is holding the fish and the catcher's face is clearly visible and the left side of the pike is exposed to the camera. Use the app that you downloaded before starting.

Please note that it is important that you take clear pictures of the fish as unclear pictures will mean that the fish will not be counted in the competition.
The best thing you can do is zoom in on your camera after you've taken the picture. If you can clearly see that the pike is lying against the top of the measuring board and that the measuring scale is clearly visible down by the tail fin, the picture is probably good enough.

NOTE: Location services must be on during the competition and when photographing the catch in order for the fishermen to be approved! This is to avoid cheating!
