Character of the water

Övre Daimasjön lies in the cold north — a northern mesotrophic lake.

The surroundings

The lake sits close to town with a road right up to it — easy to reach, but hard-fished and exposed to nutrient runoff from the buildings and fields all around.

Moderately deep (8 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

  • Pike: keep at most one over 75 cm per day.

Fishing Övre Daimasjön

perch and pike sit at the top of the food chain in Övre Daimasjön, carried by roach and ruffe. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.

Every session at Övre Daimasjön 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.
