About

Ätran belonging to one of Sweden's, better salmon fishing waters. With a very special, genetic salmon stock. Ätran has its source from Västergötland where the river is slowly but surely looking down towards the coast through scenic Ätradalen. Just below the dam Ätrafors about 2.5 mil from the outlet to the sea flowing tributary Högvadsån together with Ätran. Flow into the sea, the Kattegat in Falkenberg.

Here we have worked to create a good fishing area. has been by liming created good conditions for reproduction and is now a completely self-reproducing salmon stock.

Ten thousands Ätran salmon have been saved from the problem of acidification thanks to limestone projects in Högvadsån. Annually spread in Falkenberg about 6 million kg limestone flour at a cost of 3-4 million.
