Closed seasons in Bayern - the essentials

In Bayern, the state fisheries law and the associated ordinance define when which fish species is protected and which minimum size applies. During the closed season - usually the spawning season - the species concerned may not be taken, and undersized fish are protected all year. Both serve to maintain healthy stocks.
