Character of the water

Segolsbytjärnen lies in the south — a southern clear oligotrophic forest lake.

The surroundings

The lake lies remote, ringed by forest and bog far from any road. Few find their way here — the water is untouched and the stock undisturbed.

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

  • Pike: keep at most one over 75 cm per day.

Fishing Segolsbytjärnen

perch, pike and burbot sit at the top of the food chain in Segolsbytjärnen, carried by ål and roach. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.

Whoever fishes Segolsbytjärnen 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.
