Norra Bolsjön
Character of the water
Norra Bolsjön lies in the south — a southern mesotrophic lake.
The surroundings
The lake sits close to town with a road right up to it — easy to reach, but hard-fished and exposed to nutrient runoff from the buildings and fields all around.
Moderately deep (12 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Species in Norra Bolsjön
Fishing Norra Bolsjön
Norra Bolsjön holds 5 species, with perch, pike and zander at the top of the chain and roach and ruffe schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.
Every session at Norra Bolsjön 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.
