Thursday 13 June: today we released rainbow trout in Åstjärn and Herrgårdstjärn. The next release will be the end of v26 or the beginning of v27.

The first release of the year was made on week 21 (Åstjärn, Herrgårdstjärn), the next one is planned for week 26 (Åstjärn, Herrgårdstjärn, hopefully also Uppgårdstjärn), then releases are planned for week 29 and week 32.

Within Gnarp's fishing area there are a few coastal rivers with migrating sea trout, of which Gnarpsån is the largest. The lower part of Gnarpsån offers good spring fishing for sea trout and is fine grayling water throughout the stretch.

There are also 4 put-and-take waters where rainbow, trout and char are released regularly. Of these, Herrgårdstjärn and Åstjärn are the most popular, and here there are shelters, jetties and a heating cabin. At Igeltjärn and Uppgårdstjärn there are piers/gangways and windbreaks. There are also a number of streams/rivers with stationary trout and lakes/ponds with pike, perch, roach and whitefish. The area has a good supply of fish.

You will find many of the most popular sports fishing species with us: sea trout, rainbow trout and grayling, but of course also pike and perch plus a number of other species. The waters are excellent for fly and spin fishing, but also angling and various forms of winter fishing. Several ponds and lakes are easily accessible by car and present both excellent pike and perch fishing but also other sport fishing species.

Åstjärn and Herrgårdstjärn are equipped with windbreaks, barbecue areas and floating piers that are easy to reach even for anglers in wheelchairs.

Here is the film "Many small streams" about the measures implemented in Gnarpsån and Nianån to address obstacles to migration etc. for better sea trout fishing in collaboration with, among others, The anglers.
