Character of the water

Yttre Lansjärv lies in the cold north — a northern 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.

Moderately deep (4 m) — shallow bays, the odd reef and a deeper channel through the middle.

  • Pike: keep at most one over 75 cm per day.

Fishing Yttre Lansjärv

Yttre Lansjärv holds 13 species, with perch, pike and grayling at the top of the chain and bream, id and löja schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.

Every session at Yttre Lansjärv 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.
