Träsksjön
Character of the water
Träsksjön lies in central Sweden — a humic brown tarn. The tea-stained, humic water hides the bottom within an arm's length.
The surroundings
The lake lies half-remote, a fair way from the nearest road, tucked into woodland.
Shallow throughout (max 3 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Species in Träsksjön
Fishing Träsksjön
perch, pike and trout sit at the top of the food chain in Träsksjön, carried by bream, karp and roach. The brown, humic water keeps visibility short — the fishing is more about vibration than sight.
Every session at Träsksjön 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
- Brown, humic water dampens the light — fishing can be good even in the middle of the day.
- Nutrient-rich lakes hold plenty of baitfish but often murky water.
