Character of the water

Nedra gylet lies in the south — a southern humic brown forest lake. 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.

Moderately deep (9 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Fishing Nedra gylet

Nedra gylet holds 5 species, with perch, pike and trout at the top of the chain and bream and roach schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

Whoever fishes Nedra gylet 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.

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.
