Lill-Stuorrajaure

Character of the water

Lill-Stuorrajaure lies in the cold north — a northern mesotrophic lake.

The surroundings

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

Shallow throughout (max 3 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Fishing Lill-Stuorrajaure

perch, pike and zander sit at the top of the food chain in Lill-Stuorrajaure, carried by roach. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.

Every session at Lill-Stuorrajaure 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.
