Character of the water
Boasjön lies in the south — a southern clear oligotrophic forest lake.
The surroundings
The lake lies half-remote, a fair way from the nearest road, tucked into woodland.
Moderately deep (9 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

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

Species in Boasjön
perch predatory fish
typically ~25 cm · can reach 28 cm
Perch moves carefully in the clear water — small mouthfuls, many of them.
pike predatory fish

In the clear water pike picks its moments — wary, but relentless once committed.
Fishing Boasjön
perch and pike sit at the top of the food chain in Boasjön. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.
Every session at Boasjön 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.
