Character of the water

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

The surroundings

Shallow throughout (max 2 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Fishing Brånabergstjärnen

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

Every session at Brånabergstjärnen 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.
