With a children's territorial permit, a maximum of 3 kg of other fish can be kept per day, 40 kg per year. With an annual and 24-hour children's territorial permit, fishing is only possible - under the supervision of an adult - from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.

If the annual quantitative limit for noble fish is indicated on the territorial ticket or the electronic fishing order extract, then after reaching the annual noble fish quota permitted by the territorial ticket, the license holder is obliged to exchange for a new territorial ticket or quota ticket if he or she wishes to continue fishing in Federal waters.

If the angler has not yet reached the annual quota for the number of noble fish caught and intended to be kept, but the weight of the fish caught already exceeds the annual weight quota allowed by the territorial license, then that fish can still be kept.

In case of a flagrant or repeated violation of the rules, the offending angler may be banned from exchanging the Federation's territorial ticket(s) for a maximum period of 5 years - depending on the severity of the act. In this case, after the ban has expired, the angler may only obtain a new Federation's territorial ticket at the Federation's headquarters in Vaskerestes.

If the angler provably threatens or physically assaults a fish warden, official, employee or agent of the Association, or damages federal or private property, he/she may be banned from exchanging a Federal territorial ticket for a period of more than 5 years or permanently. The decision on the ban will be made by the President of the Association in all cases from January 1, 2025, and the banned person may appeal to the Executive Committee of the Association. The Executive Committee is entitled to change the President's decision and modify the extent of the imposed ban. The angler involved in the procedure must be informed about the possibility of legal recourse in the President's decision.

Anglers can find out about violations of the rules and the sanctions that can be imposed if they are committed on our Association's website .

Anyone who keeps fish in a water area managed by the Federation with a "Catch and Release" (C&R) fishing license - with the exception of pygmy catfish - may not exchange an annual area license for water areas managed by the Federation for 5 years following the violation.

With an adult daily territorial ticket - within 24 hours - you can keep 2 of each species of noble fish subject to size restrictions, a total of 5 pieces, and a maximum of 5 kg of other fish.

With a youth daily area ticket - within 24 hours - you can keep 1 fish of each species of noble fish subject to size restrictions, 3 fish in total, and a maximum of 5 kg of other fish.

With a child's daily area ticket - within 24 hours - you cannot keep fish that are under the size limit! Only other fish can be kept, up to a maximum of 3 kg.

With an adult weekly area ticket - you can keep 6 fish of each species subject to size restrictions per week, a total of 12 fish, and a maximum of 12 kg of other fish per week. (With the weekly ticket, you can keep 2 fish of each species per day, a total of 5 fish, and a maximum of 5 kg of other fish until the weekly quota is reached.)

In case of loss of a state fishing license (catch log), a new regional license must be obtained!

Explanation of the term "noble fish": All fish that have size restrictions and/or a closed season in the water areas managed by the Association. (Ex.: pike, carp, grass carp, rainbow trout, etc.) Chub, bream, and perch are not considered noble fish.

Special rules apply in federal waters.

• The smallest size of the ham that can be kept is 30 cm / 2 pieces can be kept per day. ./
• The minimum size of brown and rainbow trout that can be kept is 30 cm /2 pieces can be kept per day/
• The minimum size of bream and chub that can be kept is 25 cm /3 kg per day./
• The minimum size of the perch that can be kept is 20 cm /3 kg per day. can be kept/
• The smallest size of the grass carp that can be kept: 40 cm / 2 pieces can be kept per day /
• It is FORBIDDEN to keep carp larger than 60 cm measured from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail, both in still waters and in rivers! The angler is obliged to release carp exceeding the upper size limit immediately and gently (after taking a quick photo, if necessary).
• It is FORBIDDEN to keep a bream larger than 50 cm measured from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail in both still and flowing waters! The angler must immediately and gently release any bream exceeding the upper size limit (after taking a quick photo, if necessary).
• In order to protect the fish, when taking photos/videos, the angler is required to hold the fish as low as possible in his hand. In order to protect large fish, when weighing, one should strive to choose the fastest and most gentle solutions for the fish. In case of improper handling of the fish, the fishery guard may withdraw the territorial ticket after issuing a warning.

It is prohibited to bait fish species protected by size restrictions (e.g. brown trout, chub) in water areas managed by the Association.

The removal of dwarf catfish and busa from waters managed by the Association is permitted without any quantitative restrictions.

The weight of the caught and retained noble fish must be recorded immediately after the catch, with the exact date, hour and minute, in the same row.

The weight of other fish must be recorded in the catch log when leaving the fishing spot. The retention of busa and dwarf catfish does not count towards the other fish take-away quota, and they can be retained indefinitely.

The catch log can only be kept with a ballpoint pen, any corrections can only be made on a separate line after crossing out.

4./ There is no specific ban on catching carp in still waters managed by the Association, except for water areas in two environmental protection areas:

• Lake Hársas – Máriaujfalu.
• Lake Vadasa with its reservoir - Hegyhátszentjakab.

In the case of a specific ban on catching carp in the listed waters, state regulations must be applied. All types of habituating feeding are prohibited on the lakes located in the two listed environmental protection areas! The Association may order a temporary general ban on catching carp from the date of fish stocking, which must be announced on the website www.vasivizeken.hu and by means of an announcement next to the affected water area.

5./ A fellow angler who states or spreads a fact about the fishing community (e.g., association leader, fishing guard, etc.) in front of others that is capable of damaging the honor, or uses an expression directly referring to such a fact, commits an offense and, in addition to the applicable legal provisions in force, the fishing guard is entitled to immediately withdraw his territorial tag due to unethical behavior in the fishing community. Based on the fishing guard's report, the Association initiates disciplinary proceedings against the fellow angler at the fishing association concerned.

We are waiting for photographic reports of record-sized fish species caught in the Association's water areas to the Association's contact details throughout the year. In the report, please record the angler's name, association, name of the fish species, time and location of the catch, weight of the caught fish, and a brief description of the circumstances of the catch. Among the reporters of record catches received by November 30 of the current year, we will draw 1 Federation service area ticket valid for the following year. In matters not regulated in these Fishing Rules, the National Fishing Rules of the MOHOSZ shall prevail.
