Hanakamtjärn

Hanakamtjärn is put and take in Härjedalen municipality, by road 514 south of Vemdalen. Hån-Vemdalens FVOF stocks brown trout and Arctic char. Its own P&T permit. We do not sell the permits — buy via the permit seller.

Species

Brown trout and Arctic char are the main species. This page is Hanakamtjärn, not Järpbäcksdammen a couple of kilometres away.

Typical of small tarns: the fish can sit tight after stocking. That is not unique to Hanakamtjärn.

You fish two salmonids that like the cold, clear mountain-near water. Arctic char often sit deeper and cooler than brown trout, especially in heat. Because boats and float tubes are not allowed, all fishing is from the bank, so think about how far you can reach.

County: Jämtlands län. Province: Härjedalen.

Fly fishing, spin fishing and bait fishing

Here: fly fishing, spin fishing, bait fishing and ice jigging with one rod. Boats and float tubes are not allowed here according to the association.

The association mentions parking, a wind shelter and a fireplace. The entrance is ploughed in winter according to them.

Lures and flies

Small spinners, spoons and simple nymphs are a common start for stocked salmonids. The tips are general.

When they bite

Stocking is decided by the manager. Morning and evening are often nicer. Check an open permit with the seller.

This high up the season is shorter and the water cooler, so early summer and chilly days often give more than high summer. In winter ice jigging takes over when the ice holds.
