Rödtjärnen

Character of the water

Rödtjärnen lies in the cold north — a northern mesotrophic 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.

Fishing Rödtjärnen

trout sit at the top of the food chain in Rödtjärnen. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.

Whoever fishes Rödtjärnen 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.
