Character of the water

Tsuoppojaure lies in the cold north — a northern clear oligotrophic forest lake.

The surroundings

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

Shallow throughout (max 4 m), with reeds and vegetation over large areas — water that warms fast in spring.

Fishing permit required — Tsuoppojaure 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.

Fishing Tsuoppojaure

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

Every session at Tsuoppojaure 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.
