Södra Långvattnet

Södra Långvattnet is put and take in Mölndal municipality. Kvarnbyns Sportfiskeklubb stocks rainbow trout and brown trout. You buy a special permit for this water – an area permit for surrounding lakes is not enough. Göteborg’s blue and yellow permits do not apply here. The map name can be written Södra Långevattnet.

Species

The main species is planted rainbow trout. It is the planted salmonids that are fished here, not pike in a natural water.

Rainbow trout in a bounded lake often sit close to the bank after stocking and then spread toward deeper parts. Brown trout can sit more cautiously along the same banks.

Fly fishing, spin fishing and bait fishing

The methods we filter on are fly fishing and spin fishing. Fly fishing and light baitcaster from the bank. Bait fishing is not documented as allowed here. Boat motors are often banned in this type of water – follow the seller, not a forum.

Lures and flies

Small spoons and spinners in silver, white or orange are a common start where spin is allowed. On fly: nymph, pupa and a simple streamer. Scent baits can be banned – that is on the seller’s page. The tips are general for planted salmonids.

When they bite

Planted salmonids are liveliest in cool water and just after a refill. Dawn and dusk often beat high sun. When the club last stocked, you read with the permit seller.

Getting there

A clear-water lake at Kikås in Mölndal. Fishing from the bank. One parking place can be closed in summer according to the map. The map pin points at the named water, not the town. Park where it is signed.

Rules

Always check the current rules with the permit seller. The permit is personal. Quota, season and what applies for children change. Bring the confirmation digitally or printed.
