Fiskängstjärnen
Character of the water
Fiskängstjärnen lies in central Sweden — a humic brown tarn. The tea-stained, humic water hides the bottom within an arm's length.
The surroundings
The lake lies half-remote, a fair way from the nearest road, tucked into woodland.
Shallow throughout (max 1 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Fishing permit required — Fiskängstjärnen FVOF. Day permit ~60 kr · annual permit ~300 kr.

Fishing Fiskängstjärnen
Fiskängstjärnen holds 6 species, with perch and pike at the top of the chain and bream, roach and vendace 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 Fiskängstjärnen are alike.
General rules of thumb for this kind of water
- Brown, humic water dampens the light — fishing can be good even in the middle of the day.
