The surroundings

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

Fishing Slyegöl

The fishing here follows the water's own rhythm: dawn and dusk have their windows, fronts close and open them, and the season moves the fish. No two sessions at Slyegöl are alike.
