Stora Nöjevatten

Stora Nöjevatten is put and take in Kungälv municipality, in Svartedalen nature reserve north of Göteborg. Sportfiskarna stocks rainbow trout in selected lakes. The folder lists Stora Nöjevatten among the waters where salmonids are stocked. A shared Svartedalskort applies. We do not sell the permits — buy via the permit seller.

Species

Planted rainbow trout is the reason. Pike and perch occur naturally. Not Timmervatten to the east and not Klarevatten, which has no stocked rainbow trout in the folder.

Klarevatten and Övre Långevatten are on the same permit but the folder does not list rainbow trout there. Those pages are not published as P&T.

Rainbow trout is the P&T species here, stocked in selected lakes in the reserve. Because only fly and spin are allowed you fish without bait fishing, from the bank. Rainbow trout take lure and fly and often sit along the edges after a stocking. In a nature reserve the reserve rules sit on top of the permit, so stay on the path.

Fly fishing, spin fishing and bait fishing

Spin and fly according to the folder. One rod, one hook according to Sportfiskarna. Fly fishing is included. Other methods only if the folder allows them in Stora Nöjevatten itself.

Children up to 16 fish free with an adult who has a permit, on that person’s quota.

Lures and flies

Nymph, streamer and small spinners are a common start against stocked rainbow trout. The tips are general and therefore not specific to Stora Nöjevatten.

When they bite

Stocking is decided by Sportfiskarna. Casting hours are with the seller (summer and winter have different clock times). Check an open permit.

The folder is dated; rules may have changed. Read the current permit.

Stocked rainbow trout are liveliest in cool water and just after a refill, and usually bite best at dawn and dusk. Check the clock times before you go.

Getting there

The map pin sits at Stora Nöjevatten in Kungälv municipality. Park where it is marked, often Grandalen. Nature reserve — stay on the path.

Not Timmervatten to the east and not Klarevatten.

The Svartedalskort covers eight waters. Only lakes where the folder lists stocked rainbow trout get a P&T page. Grandalen is mentioned as an information board and QR. The nature reserve’s rules apply on top of the fishing permit.

Rules

Always check the current rules with the permit seller. Quota, hours and fly zones change. Current prices are on the permit seller’s page.
