Nybrosjön
Character of the water
Nybrosjön lies in central Sweden — a nutrient-rich lowland 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.

Species in Nybrosjön
Fishing Nybrosjön
perch, pike and zander sit at the top of the food chain in Nybrosjön, carried by roach and bream. The nutrient-rich water means plenty of baitfish — and predators that grow fat on them.
Every session at Nybrosjön 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.
