Paradise for fishing

Fishing waters

Getnö Gård's sport fishing waters are privately owned and make up in total 1,000 hectares. The lake's abundance in plankton results in fast-growing fish and together with the lake's large areas of shallow water, fish production is very high. Besides our own fishing waters here in Getnö, there are a further 14,500 hectares of Lake Åsnen to fish in, as well as "put and take" fishing in the 14 hectare large Lake Kålsjön.

Fish species

Pike, perch and zander are the three largest species in Lake Åsnen. It is also rich in eel and a variety of whitefish such as bream, tench, rudd and roach. There are, in total, over 20 species of whitefish.

Fishing methods

Spinning for pike perch and zander. Troll angling for zander and pike, jigging for perch, burbot, etc. Bait fishing for carp and other whitefish, and fly-fishing for trout and salmon.
