The fishing season
Bakåsvatnet lies north of the Arctic Circle, and Finnfisk counts every water there as mountain and north. The ice goes weeks later than in the lowlands, and the season closes earlier.
No species is recorded in GBIF within 2 km of Bakåsvatnet, so no months are listed per species.
Season and closed periods for Bakåsvatnet are set by the rights holder and by local rules. See the whole table for both zones.
