Character of the water

Moderately deep (4 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Fishing Ensjön
Ensjön holds 3 species, with perch and pike at the top of the chain and roach schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.
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 Ensjön are alike.
