Character of the water

Långviktjärnen lies in the cold north — a northern 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.

Shallow throughout (max 4 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Fishing Långviktjärnen

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

Every session at Långviktjärnen 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.
