Character of the water

Killingetjärnet lies in the south — a southern clear oligotrophic forest lake.

The surroundings

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

Moderately deep (9 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

  • Pike: keep at most one over 75 cm per day.

Fishing Killingetjärnet

Killingetjärnet holds 5 species, with perch and pike at the top of the chain and ål, roach and whitefish schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

Every session at Killingetjärnet 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.
