Character of the water

Nygårdssjön lies in the south — a southern mesotrophic lake.

The surroundings

The lake lies half-remote, a fair way from the nearest road, tucked into woodland.

Shallow throughout (max 4 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

  • Pike: keep at most one over 75 cm per day.
  • Trout & Arctic char: protected during the autumn spawn · catch-and-release on certain stretches.

Fishing Nygårdssjön

Nygårdssjön holds 9 species, with perch, pike and zander at the top of the chain and ål, bream and löja schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

Every session at Nygårdssjön 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.
