Stora Gang
Character of the water
Stora Gang lies in the south — a southern clear oligotrophic forest 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 (12 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.
