Character of the water

Stor-Lapphålan lies in the cold north — a northern mesotrophic lake.

The surroundings

Shallow throughout (max 2 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

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

Fishing Stor-Lapphålan

perch and pike sit at the top of the food chain in Stor-Lapphålan, carried by roach and ruffe. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.

Every session at Stor-Lapphålan 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.
