Character of the water
Möcklasjö lies in the south — a southern 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 3 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Fishing Möcklasjö
perch, pike and trout sit at the top of the food chain in Möcklasjö, carried by roach. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.
Whoever fishes Möcklasjö regularly builds something of their own: a log of what took, where and when. That's how the water gives up its patterns — cast by cast, never all at once.
