Fishing Tåtnjaranjaure

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

Every session at Tåtnjaranjaure 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.
