Fishing in Styrnäs

A happy man is sitting on a camping chair and winter fishing. In front of him lies several fishes.

Styrnäs offers excellent fishing in Sweden, with several lakes suitable for both beginners and experienced anglers. The area includes both naturally reproducing waters and regularly stocked lakes.

Every early summer, rainbow trout and Arctic char are stocked in Köpmantjärn, while Stora Bergstjärn is stocked with trout. This ensures reliable trout fishing throughout the season.

Located between Sollefteå and Kramfors, near the renowned High Coast (Höga Kusten), Styrnäs offers peaceful lake fishing in one of northern Sweden’s most scenic regions.
