These are just the main rules. Each violation can cause you a fine of 1032 euros

Jedan od uvjeta za kupovinu godišnje dozvole jest da ste hrvatski državljanin ili strani državljanin sa prijavljenim prebivalištem na području Republike Hrvatske.

U cijeni ribolovne dozvole nije uključena članska iskaznica Hrvatskog saveza za športski ribolov na moru koja, prema najnovijem Pravilniku Ministarstva poljoprivrede i šumarstva, nije više obavezna prilikom kupovine godišnje dozvole za obavljanje rekreacijsko-športskog ribolova na moru. Osobe koje se žele natjecati na športskim natjecanjima u udičarenju / podvodnom ribolovu u organizaciji HSŠRM-a (za bilo koju kategoriju natjecanja) obavezne su posjedovati člansku iskaznicu HSŠRM-a koju također možete naručiti i dobiti preko naše udruge. 

Detaljnje informacije o cijenama i vrstama dozvola pročitajte u Pravilniku o rekreacijsko-športskom ribolovu na moru ili nas kontaktirajte.

MINIMALNE DOZVOLJENE LOVNE VELIČINE GOSPODARSKI VAŽNIH VRSTA RIBA

Sportski ribolovci, htjeli to oni ili ne, moraju poznavati neke od zakonskih akata. To se posebno odnosi na Naredbu o zaštiti riba i drugih morskih organizama. Naredba o zaštiti propisuje što se podrazumijeva pod nedoraslim ribama i drugim morskim organizmima te najmanju količinu (dužinu ili težinu) gospodarski važnih vrsta riba. Nedoraslim ribama i drugim morskim organizmima, stoji u naredbi, smatraju se svi razvojni oblici prije njihove prve spolne zrelosti. U svrhu bolje informiranosti, jer sportski ribolovci to moraju znati, navodimo najmanje veličine gospodarski važnih vrsta riba, ispod kojih se ne smiju loviti.

Napomena : ribama se dužina tijela mjeri od vrška glave do kraja ispružene repne peraje.

Written by Alejandro Garcia   

Spear Fishing Licence: In Spain the Spear Fishing Licence is provided by every autonomous regions and they have the authority to make his own regulation. The place to get it is in the Regional ministry of fishing and agricultural, and you need:

- Federation licence or a  insurance of accident and civil responsibility 
- Medical certificate.
- Pay some taxes. (Those taxes are not the same in every Region. As an example, in the Region of Murcia the taxes are 6,76€.)

The validity of the licence is different on every autonomous region, for example in the region of Murcia is valid for 3 years.

Restrictions: Only freediving method of fishing is allowed and you can use speargun only in daytime. Aqua scooters are forbidden too and caught fish can not be sold. When spearfishing you must use buoy that is connected to your body to signal your location. There is a daily limit in weight, that is 5kg and one fish per licence (is not possible to have two 6kg fishes but you can have three fishes that makes 4,5 kg and a 20 kg fish).

Restricted Areas: In every region you have restricted areas with different level of restrictions. Spearfishing can be total forbidden or there can be forbidden some days of the week. Is very important to be informed of those areas before we go fishing (is possible to be informed in the same place that we get the licence).

It is forbidden to catch fish smaller than:

PORTUGAL

The Licence costs about 7 or 8 Euros for the year. For some strange reason the cost is not the same in the all of Portugal.
You can get the licence from any Port Authority.
Fishing at night it's not alowed, you can't capture Groupers in the Azores or Madeira. Foreigners don't need a licence as long they're not staying in the country more than 30 days
