Character of the water

Rogbergasjön lies in the south — a southern humic brown tarn. The tea-stained, humic water hides the bottom within an arm's length. In summer a thermocline settles around 6 m and splits the lake into two worlds.

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.

Permits & rules

Fishing permit required — Rogbergasjön FVOF. Day permit ~60 kr · annual permit ~300 kr.

  • Pike: keep at most one over 75 cm per day.
  • Handheld tackle only. Respect the protected zones at the inlets and outlets.

Species in Rogbergasjön

perch predatory fish
typically ~9 cm · can reach 44 cm
The nutrient-rich water keeps perch moving constantly between the feeding grounds.
pike predatory fish
typically ~70 cm · can reach 98 cm
Pike hunts by feel more than sight in the stained water — short, hard strikes close to the bait.
burbot bottom fish
typically ~45 cm · can reach 90 cm
Down on the bottom burbot sifts the soft ground — patience beats speed here.
roach coarse fish
typically ~12 cm · can reach 27 cm
The nutrient-rich water keeps roach moving constantly between the feeding grounds.
sutare fish
typically ~52 cm · can reach 53 cm
Sutare works the bottom in the dark — smell and feel come before everything else.

Fishing Rogbergasjön

Rogbergasjön holds 5 species, with perch, pike and burbot at the top of the chain and roach and sutare schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

Whoever fishes Rogbergasjön 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.

General rules of thumb for this kind of water

  • Brown, humic water dampens the light — fishing can be good even in the middle of the day.
