It does not say that the card covers the water. Cards sold anywhere else are not counted. “Most GBIF records” is the species with the most records in the municipality, among those with at least five. A dash means no species has five. ## The largest waters with a fishing-card offer nearby Each has a page of its own, with the fishing-card offer, the facts about the water and the fishing season. - [Krøderen](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/krodsherad/kroderen) Krødsherad 44 km² - [Eikeren](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/ovre-eiker/eikeren) Øvre Eiker 28 km² - [Tunhovdfjorden](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/nore-og-uvdal/tunhovdfjorden) Nore og Uvdal 26 km² - [Pålsbufjorden](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/nore-og-uvdal/palsbufjorden) Nore og Uvdal 20 km² - [Sønstevatn](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/nore-og-uvdal/sonstevatn) Nore og Uvdal 13 km² - [Langesjøen](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/nore-og-uvdal/langesjoen) Nore og Uvdal 11 km² - [Rødungen](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/al/rodungen) Ål 5.0 km² - [Norefjorden](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/nore-og-uvdal/norefjorden) Nore og Uvdal 3.9 km² - [Glitre](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/modum/glitre) Modum 3.7 km² - [Øyangen](https://finnfisk.no/en/vann/ringerike/oyangen) Ringerike 3.1 km² ## Curated fishing spots in Buskerud (2) - [Øvre Numedal (Hardangervidda øst)](https://finnfisk.no/en/fiskeplass/ovre-numedal) Brown trout - [Bergsjø (Ål, Hallingdal)](https://finnfisk.no/en/fiskeplass/bergsjo) Brown trout ## Species recorded in Buskerud - [Brown trout 16,396](https://finnfisk.no/en/orretfiske) - [Perch 2,535](https://finnfisk.no/en/abborfiske) - [Arctic char 2,016](https://finnfisk.no/en/royefiske) - [Atlantic salmon 1,002](https://finnfisk.no/en/laksefiske) - [Whitefish 752](https://finnfisk.no/en/sikfiske) - [Pike 299](https://finnfisk.no/en/gjeddefiske) - [Grayling 58](https://finnfisk.no/en/harrfiske) The number is the sum of GBIF occurrence records in the municipalities where the species has at least five. It is not a measure of how much fish there is. It says the species has been observed in the county, not that it is in any particular water, and not that fishing for it is permitted. The guides to the species with the most records: [brown trout](https://finnfisk.no/en/orretfiske), [perch](https://finnfisk.no/en/abborfiske) and [Arctic char](https://finnfisk.no/en/royefiske). ## The rules in Buskerud Finnfisk does not reproduce local rules, because they are set per water and per watercourse and they change. Season, minimum and maximum sizes, daily quotas and closed seasons come from the rights holder who sells the card, and from the regional regulation. The regional fishing authority in Buskerud is the County Governor of Østfold, Buskerud, Oslo og Akershus, Statsforvalteren. - [County Governor of Østfold, Buskerud, Oslo og Akershus: fish management](https://www.statsforvalteren.no/nb/ostfold-buskerud-oslo-og-akershus/naringorganisasjon/fiskeforvaltning-for-grunneiere-og-organisasjoner/) - [Norwegian Environment Agency: where can I fish?](https://www.miljodirektoratet.no/ansvarsomrader/friluftsliv/friluftsliv-og-allemannsretten/fiske/) - [Fishing rules in Norway (NJFF)](https://www.njff.no/fiske/fiskeregler) Sources: NVE lake database (waters), GBIF (species records), SSB (municipality and county) and inatur (fishing cards).
