Character of the water

Svältedyveln 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 (8 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

Fishing Svältedyveln

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

Every session at Svältedyveln 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.
