Whether you like fishing in rivers or Put & Take, the area offers great experiences. The rivers around Ribe and Esbjerg offers some of Denmark's best fishing waters. In addition, there are beautifully situated angling lakes close to Ribe and Esbjerg.
Welcome to the best fishing locations in Denmark
In the southwestern part of Denmark you´ll find angling locations of very high standard and every stream has a fine population of fish.
Contrary to lots of our neighbouring countries you´ll never find streams or lakes with no fish, and if you get familiar with the conditions you´ll hardly ever return empty handed from a day of fishing.
National Fishing licence and pass
Everyone aged between 18 and 65 angling in Denmark must hold a valid angling licence. You can buy your angling licence on www.fisketegn.dk
For fishing in trout lakes (Put and Take) an angling licence is not required. You pay per day/hour on the site.
A Fishing permit is also required when fishing in Kongeå, Sneum Å and Holsted Å. They can be purchased on www.fiskekort.dk or locally in Esbjerg from Efi.
