Fishery conservation: 
The Bratten Fishery Conservation Area is dependent on your help for good fishing in the future. A good natural stock of grayling and trout can be totally devastated through a lack of fishing ethics. Watercourses in northern Sweden are nutrient-poor and very sensitive for overfishing. Small and insignificant brooks may be important spawning brooks for trout. The grayling spawns in April-May and must be allowed to do so in peace.
