Character of the water
Nursjön lies in the south — a southern nutrient-rich lowland lake.

Moderately deep (5 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Fishing Nursjön
perch sit at the top of the food chain in Nursjön, carried by roach. The nutrient-rich water means plenty of baitfish — and predators that grow fat on them.
Every session at Nursjön 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
- Nutrient-rich lakes hold plenty of baitfish but often murky water.
