Fly fishing, spin fishing and bait fishing

The permit is bought on site with Swish or cash. Buy it before you fish.

Lures and flies

Small spoons and spinners in silver, white or orange are a common start. On fly: a nymph. Change size and depth for the day rather than changing the whole box, and try a slow retrieve along the slab edge where fish like to patrol. The tips are general for rainbow trout in a lake.

Give space if someone is standing on the slab.

When they bite

Morning and evening are often best. The site states open in daytime. Stocking is decided by Fyrväpplingen.

Stocked rainbow trout are liveliest in cool water and like to take just after a fill; in strong midday sun they often go slower and seek depth at the slab edges. General patterns for the species.
