Character of the water
Tyreln 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.
A small but surprisingly deep pocket (22 m) with steep drops straight down from shore — the bottom falls away fast.

Fishing permit required — Tyreln FVOF. Day permit ~140 kr · annual permit ~700 kr.

Species in Tyreln
perch predatory fish
typically ~20 cm · can reach 44 cm
Perch moves carefully in the clear water — small mouthfuls, many of them.
pike predatory fish
typically ~56 cm · can reach 70 cm
In the clear water pike picks its moments — wary, but relentless once committed.
ruffe perch family
typically ~9 cm · can reach 13 cm
Ruffe lives down in the cool — the deep is its home ground all year.
burbot bottom fish
typically ~39 cm · can reach 57 cm
Burbot holds the bottom even in clear water — shade and depth are its cover.
roach coarse fish
typically ~17 cm · can reach 31 cm
Roach moves carefully in the clear water — small mouthfuls, many of them.
nors fish
typically ~10 cm · can reach 12 cm
Nors cruises the open water — the depth it picks follows the light through the day.
ruda fish
typically ~39 cm · can reach 42 cm
Ruda lives down in the cool — the deep is its home ground all year.
sarv fish
typically ~8 cm · can reach 8 cm
Here sarv lives on the small stuff — and rewards those who fish small and fine.
Fishing Tyreln
Tyreln holds 8 species, with perch, pike and burbot at the top of the chain and ruffe, roach and nors schooling beneath them. The depth gives the water two storeys — and the fish move between them with the season.
Whoever fishes Tyreln regularly builds something of their own: a log of what took, where and when. That's how the water gives up its patterns — cast by cast, never all at once.
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.
