Character of the water

Kårasjön lies in the south — a southern clear oligotrophic deep 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.

A small but surprisingly deep pocket (21 m) with steep drops straight down from shore — the bottom falls away fast.

Permits & rules

Fishing permit required — Kårasjön FVOF. Day permit ~100 kr · annual permit ~500 kr.

  • Pike: keep at most one over 75 cm per day.
  • Handheld tackle only. Respect the protected zones at the inlets and outlets.

Species in Kårasjön

perch predatory fish
typically ~15 cm · can reach 42 cm
Perch moves carefully in the clear water — small mouthfuls, many of them.
pike predatory fish
typically ~52 cm · can reach 76 cm
In the clear water pike picks its moments — wary, but relentless once committed.
roach coarse fish
typically ~22 cm · can reach 34 cm
Roach moves carefully in the clear water — small mouthfuls, many of them.

Fishing Kårasjön

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

Every session at Kårasjön 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.

General rules of thumb for this kind of water

  • In deep, oxygenated lakes the predators seek cool depth in summer, shallower in spring and autumn.
