What you will learn
Float fishing
A classic and peaceful way to fish for rainbow trout. You will learn how to set up a float, choose the right depth and present the bait naturally in the water.
Bottom fishing
A simple and effective method where the bait is placed near the bottom. Your guide will show you when this technique works best and how to read the conditions.
Spin fishing
Learn how to use lures and spinners to actively search for feeding trout. We go through casting, retrieving speed and how to vary your technique.
Spin fishing with a fly
A smart and exciting method where a fly is used together with spinning equipment. Perfect for guests who want to try a fly-style presentation without using a traditional fly rod.
Baits & Equipment
We will show you different types of bait, lures and basic fishing equipment suitable for rainbow trout. You will learn when to use each method, how to prepare the gear and what to think about when fishing in Swedish forest lakes.
Fish Behaviour
Understanding the fish is part of the experience. Your guide will explain how rainbow trout move, feed and react to weather, light, wind and water temperature. This gives you a better chance of success — and a deeper understanding of the lake.
