Fishing trips to the Swedish Dreamland. Swedish Lapland is generally associated with a harsh landscape, harsh climate and… with a fishing Eldorado! To meet your expectations, we are introducing a new fishing spot to our offer located in this fabulous land about which true legends already exist.
Our base is located approximately 500 km north of Stockholm in Lapland, more precisely in the Gafsele area. One of the biggest advantages of such a location is the low fishing pressure, and therefore an almost 100% guarantee of successful fishing! The main fishing spot that we would like to offer you is the Ångermanälven River. We have over 60 kilometers of it within our reach! This is an absolutely unique fishery, completely unlike our native rivers. The water flow in the river is so calm that it allows you to spin with relatively light, unloaded lures without any problems. The topography of Ångermanälven is unique – throughout its course it is interspersed with thousands of islands, islets and stone reefs, which creates excellent conditions for fishing.
The waters of the Ångermanälven River are full of pike, whose length often exceeds the magical 100 cm. Although the fish are not as fat as their skerry cousins, they can easily match them in terms of condition! Pike whose length is in the range of 80-90 cm are an everyday occurrence, and for most anglers only “meters” count – and for good reason! In the best period, i.e. from June to the end of August, several fish over a meter long are caught daily!
The game is worth the candle, but you need to remember to choose the right bait. At the beginning of the season (i.e. in June), all kinds of jerkbaits and large soft lures work great, and as summer comes, large surface lures work better and better. This state of affairs is not so much related to the change in the positions occupied by pikes, but rather to the rather luxuriant development of underwater vegetation. The best places are all kinds of breaks in the current and bends slightly separated from the main stream. It is also worth fishing the tops and drop-offs immediately adjacent to the mid-river islands.
As our primary fishing ground is the river, we can count on contact with other fish species than just pike. There is a very large perch population in Gafsele. Perch, in the sense of local anglers, means striped fish whose length exceeds 40 cm. This means that the chance of meeting a 50-centimeter humpback is more than real!
In addition to perch, the waters of Ångermanälven abound in ides, trout and grayling. Interestingly, even the most noble fish respond very well to both spinning baits and artificial flies throughout the entire season (June-September).
In addition to fishing in the river, it is also possible to fish in forest lakes, which are inhabited by spectacular graylings and brown trouts. A trip to any of the forest reservoirs must be agreed and planned in advance with the owner of the resort, who is on site throughout your stay. It is also possible to use the services of local fishing guides.
We invite you to fishing trips to Sweden!
Availability of the fishing spot
Access to the best fishing spots is provided by a boat with a combustion engine. Shore fishing is relatively difficult due to the areas being difficult to access. The first good spots for catching predators are located near the center.
Recommended fishing methods
The basic method of catching predatory fish is, of course, spinning or casting using artificial or natural baits. The trolling method works well. Predators can also be caught with an artificial fly. Whitefish can be caught with a float or using ground methods.
Limits and restrictions
You can take 1 pike per day from the fishing spot, measuring 45 – 75 cm. We release all remaining pikes back into the water. You can also take other species of fish from the fishery, but only in quantities needed for current consumption on site. Freezing of fish is prohibited. A ban on taking fish for export from Sweden.
