Character of the water

Örviktjärnen lies in the cold north — a northern mesotrophic lake.

The surroundings

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

Moderately deep (6 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Permits & rules

Fishing permit required — Örviktjärnen FVOF. Day permit ~140 kr · annual permit ~700 kr.

  • Handheld tackle only. Respect the protected zones at the inlets and outlets.

Species in Örviktjärnen

ruda fish

Ruda holds the bottom even in clear water — shade and depth are its cover.

Fishing Örviktjärnen

Örviktjärnen holds 1 species and ruda schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

Every session at Örviktjärnen 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.
