2. Weighing and measuring

b. There must also be a written confirmation that the information given is correct by a person of legal age.
4. Photo/Identification
a. A picture of the fish must be attached, showing the size of the fish clearly. The fish should be placed on the ground together with a measuring stick, possibly another familiar object (harpoon, flipper etc.)
It is also desirable to have a photo of the hunter with the catch. The images must be in good resolution.
b. In the case of species of fish that can be confused with others, a detailed photo must also be attached.
c. The fish should be deep-frozen until the record is approved by the jury
5. Special provisions
The record list applies to fish species that are considered food fish by the UV hunter. New fishing species and catch information must still be approved by the jury. It is forbidden to harpoon or stab salmon in this country, and lobsters are completely safe in relation to diving.
