Character of the water

Stora Gammelbergs lies in central Sweden — a mesotrophic stratified lake. In summer a thermocline settles around 6 m and splits the lake into two worlds.

The surroundings

The lake lies half-remote, a fair way from the nearest road, tucked into woodland.

Moderately deep (7 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Fishing Stora Gammelbergs

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

Every session at Stora Gammelbergs 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.
