Gäddtjärnen

Character of the water

The surroundings

The lake lies half-remote, a fair way from the nearest road, tucked into woodland.

Shallow throughout (max 4 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Fishing Gäddtjärnen

Gäddtjärnen holds 1 species, with pike at the top of the chain. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

Whoever fishes Gäddtjärnen 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.
