Timiș county is the Banat plain around Timișoara, crossed by the Bega, Timiș and Bârzava and their canals. The Surduc reservoir on the Gladna in the Poiana Ruscă foothills is the largest stillwater — carp, pike, bream and pike-perch — with a scatter of accumulation lakes and commercial carp waters across the plain.
Timiș waters are administered by AJVPS Timiș. Boats are heavily restricted — launching is banned on the association's ponds and lakes (Dumbrăvița, Surduc, Satchinez and others), and boat traffic on the rivers needs clearance from the Timișoara port authority. Night fishing is not addressed in the regulament, so confirm locally. You need the free ANPA permit plus the association permit.
Every angler needs the free ANPA recreational permit, available online at permise.anpa.ro. It covers the Danube, its arms, the Black Sea and non-contracted public waters.
Most inland lakes and rivers in Timiș are contracted to the county fishing association (AJVPS Timiș), which requires its own permit — sold by the day or the year and available from the association's offices and partner shops.
Mountain trout sectors in Timiș are managed by RNP-Romsilva: fishing is daylight only, from sunrise to sunset, with the Romsilva fishing tariff instead of the AJVPS permit. Border waters such as the Prut also need a Border Police endorsement.
Always confirm current night-fishing, boat and camping rules for the specific water — PiscaMaps shows what is confirmed for each venue.
