Discounts for seniors
Wody Polskie has introduced discounts for seniors in the fisheries it administers. As we read on the institution’s website, this is in response to demands from the public. This will allow pensioners to practice their hobbies for half the normal amount. Up to the concessionary fee, amounting in 2023. PLN 125 gross, school children up to the age of 18 are also eligible. In the case of pensioners, the senior citizen discount is available to those whose monthly pension benefit does not exceed PLN 2,000 gross.
Fishing fees
When paying the fee to the relevant Water Department, the right to relief must be documented. In addition, you can expect to be inspected while fishing and should then expect to be required to show proof of identity (with photo), age and status as a student, pensioner. We wrote about the necessary documents and the possibility of controlling those authorized to fish in the article: Who guards the fish… and anglers from the temptation to catch taaak fish.
The “Our Fisheries” program is a project of the water administrator, the government institution Wody Polskie. It introduces a single fishing permit valid nationwide. Its primary goal is a uniform fee of 250 zlotys on circuits used by the Polish Waterways. More than 100 fisheries across the country are included in the program. Their up-to-date list is available on the website of the State Water Company.
