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

perch sit at the top of the food chain in Bommekärr, carried by elritsa, roach and regnbåge. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.
The fishing here follows the water's own rhythm: dawn and dusk have their windows, fronts close and open them, and the season moves the fish. No two sessions at Bommekärr are alike.
