The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF form is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

Hi Folks,
I have a question. Since a couple of months I live in Norway. Selfunderstanding that I went in touch with riverfishing very soon. So I know you need a anual license and a daily or weekly license to fish for salmon. Now the salmon season is over. But I did not find any information about the trout fishing in the rivers around here or rather if there is a need to buy a fishing license for that?
I asked some guys here but the donôt know either. Has someone an idea?

… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.

You only need a national
You only need a national licence (fiskeavgift) if you fish in an area with migratory fish, e.g. sea trout, migratory arctic char or salmon. Otherwise all that you'll need is a licence or permission to fish that lake/river/stream.
