Säfsnäs FVF
Säfsnäs fiskevårdsförening looks after the lakes around Fredriksberg in the old parish of Säfsen, Ludvika municipality, Dalarna. About 170 waters. The club was formed in 1932. Most lakes are sport fishing: pike and perch. Put and take sits in named salmonid ponds with stocked rainbow trout and brown trout.
You buy an ädel permit, not the sport permit. One permit covers the salmonid waters the same calendar day. It is not five separate slips as at Grangärde Fiske. The Slogtjärn ponds still take fly only. Vittjärn can be hired; then it is on the club home page.
The main species in the stocked ponds is rainbow trout. Brown trout is put in several times a season. Arctic char is named once in autumn, after Stora Låsen has closed.
Put and take and the other waters
Two kinds of permit. Do not mix them up at iFiske.
- Put and take – Vittjärn, Bredsjön, Kroktjärn and the Slogtjärn ponds. An ädel permit. Östra Slogtjärn and Västra Slogtjärn are fly fishing in the open-water season.
- Sport fishing – Lisjön, Lejen, Gällingen and more. Pike and perch. They have no water pages here.
- Säfsen Resort – its own put-and-take waters and its own permits, not the club’s ädel slip.
Stora Låsen and Lilla Låsen are closed to all fishing from 16 October 2026 to the last Saturday in January 2027. Holmsjön is ice fishing for Arctic char, with its own permit, not the five pages here. Stenälven is closed.
The permit and the tackle
The permit is personal. Calendar day, not the clock. At most four fish per permit and day in the salmonid waters. Maize is forbidden.
Children through fourteen fish free in an adult’s company, according to the seller.
Fly fishing on the Slogtjärn ponds is the only method on open ground. Spin fishing and bait fishing belong on Vittjärn, Bredsjön and Kroktjärn.
Price sits with the seller. Swish to the club must be marked ädelfiske or sportfiske plus date and name.
Season
Rainbow trout is stocked through the season, brown trout a few times, Arctic char after Låsen has closed. Kroktjärn has its own opening: the last Friday in May at 19.00, until the last of March. The Slogtjärn ponds switch to ice jigging when the ice holds. Vittjärn is open with a permit on days it is not hired.
Practical
Drive toward Fredriksberg. Vittjärn sits to the east, the Slogtjärn ponds to the west, Bredsjön in between, Kroktjärn clearly south-west. Take the club map. Park where it is signed. Take your rubbish with you.
Another Dalarna area with its own fly water and a special P&T permit is Grangärde Fiske.
Good to keep in mind

- Four fish. Calendar day. No maize.
- Vittjärn can be hired – read the home page the same day.
