Knutstorpssjön
Character of the water
Knutstorpssjön lies in central Sweden — a clear oligotrophic forest 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 (8 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Species in Knutstorpssjön
Fishing Knutstorpssjön
perch, pike and zander sit at the top of the food chain in Knutstorpssjön. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.
Every session at Knutstorpssjön 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.
