Sandtjärnen

Character of the water

Sandtjärnen 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.

Moderately deep (5 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Fishing Sandtjärnen

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

Whoever fishes Sandtjärnen 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.
