Fishing Vuottasjaure

Vuottasjaure holds 1 species and whitefish schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

The fishing here follows the water's own rhythm: dawn and dusk have their windows, fronts close and open them, and the season moves the fish. No two sessions at Vuottasjaure are alike.
