No. To fish you need a fishing license (issued by the municipality) and a fishing permit for the specific fishing district (issued by the district's user), and you must carry both documents with you while fishing (§ 12 of Act No. 216/2018 Coll.). For fishing without these documents, the district office may impose a fine of €100 to €1,000 (§ 39).

You don't have to be an SRZ member: a non-member can buy a guest permit. Everyone needs a fishing license, including SRZ members. Prices and the procedure are in the guide How to become an angler.

City SRZ organization Šaľa (Kráľovská 33, 927 01 Šaľa) operates in the town. You get the permit for its fishing districts from it. An SRZ member can also buy it online at esrz.sk after logging in with their SRZ ID.

You get a fishing license at the municipal office (in Bratislava and Košice at the borough office). The application can also be submitted electronically via the slovensko.sk portal. The license costs €3 to €25 depending on its validity, and €0 for children under 15.

Membership is not required. A non-member of SRZ with a fishing license can buy a guest permit: according to the 2026 price list it costs €40 per day and €150 per week in 24 standard fishing districts (a member pays €15 and €40). Some waters have their own prices and conditions.

Before the trip, check in the fishing order whether the guest permit is also valid for the area he has chosen, for example Mr. America III..

A fishing license for a child under 15 costs €0 and is issued in the child's name. SRZ sells children's permits from the age of 3 (carp waters: €1 for children aged 3 to 5, €15 for children aged 6 to 14). The parts of the law we read do not state a minimum age for fishing; it is sensible for a child to be accompanied by an adult at the water.

For first trips, calm still water is usually more practical than a fast river. The nearest standing water from the city center is MR America III. (3.5 km).

Records of the occurrence of fish in the vicinity of the fishing districts in the 30 km (GBIF) mainly state: the rainbow shovel, the bigmouth tooth, the red-eyed roach, the tube-bearing bull, the European eel and the green perch. This is a list of species that occur in the area, not a guarantee of a catch.

Closed seasons, minimum sizes and the daily limit under Decree No. 381/2018 Coll. and the permit conditions also apply to catches; an overview is in the guide The fishing law, rule by rule.

Yes, the nearest trout fishing district is Parná č. 2 (44 km from the town centre). Trout and grayling waters have their own closed seasons and fishing rules; you will find them in the fishing regulations of the fishing district.

We do not yet have data on campsites and caravan pitches near the fishing districts around the town.

Overnight stays by the water are governed by the landowner's rules, nature protection rules and the fishing regulations of the fishing district. Check them before you go.
