Character of the water
Vena göl lies in the south — a southern mesotrophic stratified lake. In summer a thermocline settles around 7 m and splits the lake into two worlds.
The surroundings
The lake lies half-remote, a fair way from the nearest road, tucked into woodland.
Moderately deep (11 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

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

Fishing Vena göl
perch, pike and burbot sit at the top of the food chain in Vena göl, carried by roach. The clearer water makes the fish wary — and rewards a careful presentation.
Whoever fishes Vena göl 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.
