Grangärde Fiske

Grangärde Fiske leases the waters from Grangärde fishery conservation area in Ludvika municipality, Dalarna. Most lakes go on a membership card: pike, perch, crayfish against their own add-on. Put and take is five named ponds with stocked rainbow trout. The FVOF permit is not enough there.

You pick the water at the till. Hedtjärn and Sottjärn sit together as one purchase, with a fishing camp five kilometres north of Nyhammar. Tanstjärn, Ljustjärn and Gåltjärn have their own caps on the number of permits per day. It is not an area where you walk between five ponds on the same slip.

The main species in the stocked ponds is rainbow trout. Arctic char counts in the bag when you keep one.

Put and take and the other waters

Two kinds of permit. Do not mix them up at iFiske.

• Put and take – Övre Hedtjärn, Sottjärn, Tanstjärn, Ljustjärn and Gåltjärn. A special day permit. Sottjärn is the fly lake.
• Other waters – membership and FVOF. Pike and perch belong here, not the five ponds above. They have no water pages here.

Kytjärn, Igeltjärn and Knivsjön can be closed when they are hired. They are not the P&T list. Bredtjärn, Lilla Ångtjärn and Femöringen are not open to public fishing.

The permit and the tackle

The permit is personal. Show it and identification. One rod, no matter how many permits you have bought. Tackle must be watched. You may bring one assembled rod.

At most three rainbow trout or Arctic char per permit in the P&T ponds. Children under twelve fish in a guardian’s company on that permit and bag.

On Hedtjärn–Sottjärn the day is counted from purchase. On Tanstjärn, Ljustjärn and Gåltjärn it is 00.00–24.00. The Hedtjärn–Sottjärn permit also covers a pitch for a caravan, motorhome or tent at the camp; without a valid permit you do not pitch.

Fly fishing on Sottjärn is fly rod, fly line and an artificial fly. Spin fishing and bait fishing belong on Övre Hedtjärn and on the three separate ponds.

Price sits with the seller. A Grangärde Fiske year card gives a discount on P&T when you buy digitally. ICA Grangärde also sells Hedtjärn–Sottjärn.

Season

Hedtjärn–Sottjärn close in early winter and have an ice premiere in spring. Tanstjärn closes at the same time until the club says otherwise. Ljustjärn and Gåltjärn can switch from day permits to a membership card when the ice holds. The date moves between years. Read that week’s notice at Grangärde Fiske before you go.

Practical

Drive toward Nyhammar. The camp at Hedtjärn is the hub for two ponds. Tanstjärn sits north-east, Ljustjärn to the north, Gåltjärn clearly to the south. Take the club map. Park so rescue can get through. Take your rubbish with you.

Another area with its own fly water and a special P&T permit is Abborresjöns sportfiske.

Good to keep in mind

• An ordinary Grangärde card is not enough in the five P&T ponds.
• Hedtjärn and Sottjärn are one purchase. Sottjärn is fly only.
• Three fish. One rod. Children under twelve on a guardian’s permit.
• Day from purchase at the camp. Calendar day on Tanstjärn, Ljustjärn and Gåltjärn.
• Winter close and ice premiere sit with the seller.
