Kuolle-Kartaure
Character of the water
Kuolle-Kartaure lies in the cold north — a northern nutrient-rich lowland 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.
Shallow throughout (max 4 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Fishing Kuolle-Kartaure
perch, pike and zander sit at the top of the food chain in Kuolle-Kartaure, carried by roach and bream. The nutrient-rich water means plenty of baitfish — and predators that grow fat on them.
The fishing here follows the water's own rhythm: dawn and dusk have their windows, fronts close and open them, and the season moves the fish. No two sessions at Kuolle-Kartaure are alike.
General rules of thumb for this kind of water
