Character of the water

Töllsjön lies in the south — a southern mesotrophic lake.

The surroundings

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

Large and deep (19 m): a central basin ringed by drop-offs and shallow bays around the edges — varied bottom with many spots to read.

Permits & rules

Fishing permit required — Töllsjön FVOF. Day permit ~100 kr · annual permit ~500 kr.

  • Pike: keep at most one over 75 cm per day.
  • Handheld tackle only. Respect the protected zones at the inlets and outlets.

Species in Töllsjön

Bream holds the bottom even in clear water — shade and depth are its cover.
pike predatory fish
typically ~46 cm · can reach 85 cm
Pike is a sight-hunter here — the clear water means long follows before the take.
roach coarse fish
typically ~16 cm · can reach 28 cm
Here roach lives on the small stuff — and rewards those who fish small and fine.
sutare fish

Sutare holds the bottom even in clear water — shade and depth are its cover.

Fishing Töllsjön

Töllsjön holds 5 species, with perch and pike at the top of the chain and bream, roach and sutare schooling beneath them. The depth gives the water two storeys — and the fish move between them with the season.

Every session at Töllsjön 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.

General rules of thumb for this kind of water

  • In deep, oxygenated lakes the predators seek cool depth in summer, shallower in spring and autumn.
