Dunsjön

Character of the water

Dunsjön lies in the south — a southern mesotrophic stratified lake. In summer a thermocline settles around 6 m and splits the lake into two worlds.

The surroundings

The lake lies remote, ringed by forest and bog far from any road. Few find their way here — the water is untouched and the stock undisturbed.

Moderately deep (6 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Fishing Dunsjön

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

Whoever fishes Dunsjön regularly builds something of their own: a log of what took, where and when. That's how the water gives up its patterns — cast by cast, never all at once.
