Öratjärnarna

Character of the water

Öratjärnarna lies in central Sweden — a clear oligotrophic forest lake.

The surroundings

The lake lies half-remote, a fair way from the nearest road, tucked into woodland.

Shallow throughout (max 3 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Fishing permit required — Öratjärnarna FVOF. Day permit ~100 kr · annual permit ~500 kr.

• Trout & Arctic char: protected during the autumn spawn · catch-and-release on certain stretches.

Fishing Öratjärnarna

Öratjärnarna holds 1 species, with trout at the top of the chain. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

Every session at Öratjärnarna is fished in whatever conditions hold right then — the same pressure, wind and light as over the real water. What bites today isn't what bit the day before, and those who return learn the water for real.
