Character of the water

Bråttjärnen lies in central Sweden — a mesotrophic lake.

The surroundings

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

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

Pike: keep at most one over 75 cm per day.
Handheld tackle only. Respect the protected zones at the inlets and outlets.

Ål lives down in the cool — the deep is its home ground all year.

Fishing Bråttjärnen

Bråttjärnen holds 5 species, with perch, pike and burbot at the top of the chain and ål and roach schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

Every session at Bråttjärnen 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.
