Fishing Stora Abborregölen
perch and pike sit at the top of the food chain in Stora Abborregölen, carried by roach, bream and ruffe. The nutrient-rich water means plenty of baitfish — and predators that grow fat on them.
Every session at Stora Abborregölen 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.
