Character of the water

Hajs Sjö lies in the south — a southern mesotrophic lake.

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

Fishing Hajs Sjö

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

Every session at Hajs Sjö 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.
