Dear Dr. Ozbilgin.

On the west coast of Sweden (e.g. in the Gullmar fjord) there is a limited
light fishery. In the fall, smaller boats (<15m) use lights and purse seines
on schools of sprat and herring. I have tried to  find  regulations
controlling this practice in the regulations of the Swedish Board of
Fisheries, but found nothing. The lack thereof probably indicate that this
is a very marginal activity requiring special permissions.

You might contact Johan Modin at The Board for more information.
