Lagårdssjön
Character of the water
Lagårdssjön lies in central Sweden — a humic brown tarn. The tea-stained, humic water hides the bottom within an arm's length.
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 permit required — Lagårdssjön FVOF. Day permit ~100 kr · annual permit ~500 kr.

Species in Lagårdssjön
Fishing Lagårdssjön
perch and pike sit at the top of the food chain in Lagårdssjön, carried by asp, björkna and bream. The brown, humic water keeps visibility short — the fishing is more about vibration than sight.
Every session at Lagårdssjön 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
- Brown, humic water dampens the light — fishing can be good even in the middle of the day.
