Character of the water

Stora Öjasjön lies in the south — a southern mesotrophic lake.

The surroundings

The lake sits close to town with a road right up to it — easy to reach, but hard-fished and exposed to nutrient runoff from the buildings and fields all around.

Moderately deep (6 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Fishing permit required — Stora Öjasjön FVOF. Day permit ~140 kr · annual permit ~700 kr.

Fishing Stora Öjasjön

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

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 Stora Öjasjön are alike.
