What this zone is

Overview

How spearfishing is treated at Rijeka Guduća i ušće (posebno stanište).

The Guduća river and its estuary opening into the north-western arm of Prokljansko jezero (City of Skradin), bounded by the Cape Peluča – Cape Stinička line. Designated a 'posebno stanište' (special fish habitat) under Article 14 of Pravilnik NN 125/2020: the speargun is not among the permitted gears, so spearfishing is banned; the restriction applies to sport and recreational fishing (Art. 14(6)). Note: the adjoining Prokljansko jezero itself is NOT closed to spearfishing — Art. 18(2) expressly allows the speargun in sport fishing there.
