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.

Fishing Sör-Grötsjön
perch, pike and grayling sit at the top of the food chain in Sör-Grötsjön, carried by regnbåge and whitefish. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.
Every session at Sör-Grötsjön 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.
