Norrtälje Sportfiskare

Erken - ATTENTION!! only part of Erken
Uppland's largest lake by volume, 23 km2 in size and with a maximum depth of approx. 22m, is largely surrounded by
wilderness-like forest with a large element of blocky terrain. In the short fishing areas, there are lots of interesting rock formations and cliffs to fish at, but also fishing at the elongated reeds can provide fantastic pike fishing!

In Erken, fishing is mainly aimed at perch, pike and zander, but also fishing for the most common carp, which are typical of lakes in the farming landscape, can be done with success. The opportunities to fish from land are limited but can be done at a few places on the northern shore, from Rörvik to Hasselhorn and from the beaches inside Svanbergaviken. At "Rumpudden", between Rörvik and Hasselhorn, there are 2 shelters with barbecue areas.
Public and barrier-free launching ramp is available at Vikingabyn ( https://kartor.eniro.se/m/QYT6O ), Svanberga! DO NOT park at the turnpike, at the entrance to Vikingabyn, but parking must only be done on the approach bed! A boom-free ramp means that it is open, but both Svanberga båtförening and Norrtälje SF would like a fee of SEK 100, alternatively a season pass of SEK 500, to be paid as a contribution for keeping the ramp open and maintaining it (nothing that will be checked but done by serious users )! Follow the instructions on site!

The pickpocket
Nutrient-rich and elongated lake with dense, elongated reeds. Bottom and rock bottoms are completely missing, but there are sections on the southern shore that consist of rock and rock. The deepest part of the lake, approx. 7m, is in the area where the lake is at its narrowest.

In Lommaren, and at Lommarbadet at the eastern end of the lake, there are opportunities to launch a boat in connection with the bath's parking lot. Land fishing opportunities are largely non-existent, but can be done at some public jetties in the eastern part of the lake.

In Lommaren, fishing is mainly focused on perch, pike and zander throughout the year. Many of the lake's large perch migrate up to Lommaren from the sea after spawning via the Norrtäljeån, then stay behind thanks to the good supply of food and can offer real hookers in winter and summer! The most common carp, which are typical of lakes in the farming landscape, are also present in large numbers.

The gluer
Nutrient-rich and relatively shallow lake, and in the current area, consisting of dense reeds. In the area there are a couple of grounds and also the presence of rocky bottoms. The area has a maximum depth of approx. 5m.

Unfortunately, there are no public launch sites and shore fishing is largely non-existent. Info can be obtained from Norrtälje
Angler.

In Limmaren, the fishing is mainly focused on perch, pike and pikeperch, and especially during the winter you can have success if you want either with pike fishing or ice fishing. The most common carp, which are typical of lakes in the farming landscape, are also present in large numbers.

Frötuna-Kyrksjö
"Frötunasjön" differs significantly in character compared to the other waters in the short fishing area. The lake is partly surrounded by steep mountains and slopes and partly by flatter shores adjacent to agricultural land. The lake's depth conditions are accordingly and the bottom slopes very sharply in some places. The beaches consist partly of stone and boulders but also of both sparse and dense reeds. There is a foundation in the area and a maximum depth of about 15m is in the middle of the lake. On the northern shore of the lake, there are opportunities to launch a smaller boat. The place is reached from the old Norrtäljevägen.

Land fishing can be done from protruding headlands/rock outcrops in the southern part of the lake, towards Lönnsvik, from both the western and eastern shores. ATTENTION!!! Pay attention and respect the boundaries that separate the short fishing waters from Lönnsvik's water and fishing rights owners and that it is strictly forbidden to enter private land and piers!! Markings are available on both the east and west sides inward to Lönnsvik, consisting of white/red painted signs (white = short fishing water, red = private water)". In Lake Frötunasjön, fishing is mainly aimed at perch, pike and zander throughout the year, and pike fishing in particular can give good results. Even the most common carp fish are present.

Malstasjön
Nutrient-rich and relatively shallow lake that is partly surrounded by steep mountains and slopes and partly by flatter beaches adjacent to agricultural land. The shallow bays to the west and east are largely covered by water lilies from early summer. There are no public launch sites, but at the bathing site, which is accessible from Malsta Kyrka's parking lot, you can easily reach the lake by Canadian boat or other light craft. Talk to the municipality and show consideration for the bath's guests. Land fishing is largely non-existent but can be done at the protruding headlands in the southern part of the lake, Degaröviken.

In Lake Malstasjön, fishing is mainly aimed at perch, pike all year round and the most common carp fish, which are typical for lakes in the farming landscape, are also found in large quantities.

Rimbo Långsjö
Nutrient-rich and elongated lake with very varied beaches consisting of dense or sparse and elongated reeds, stone and rock outcrops. There are several foundations and stone sections.

In Rimbo Långsjö, and at the municipality's bathing area at the eastern end of the lake, there are opportunities to launch a boat. Talk to the municipality and show consideration for the bath's guests. Opportunities for shore fishing are largely non-existent from the northern shore, but can be partially carried out on the southern shore.

In Rimbo Långsjö, fishing is mainly aimed at perch, pike and zander throughout the year and the most common carp fish, which are typical of lakes in the farming landscape, are also found in large quantities.

Norrtäljeån
From Lake Lommaren in the west, the Norrtäljeån flows through Norrtälje city center until it finally empties into Norrtälje harbour. The banks of the river are relatively easily accessible from the upper part down to the "Gamla Elverksbron" and mainly consist of a border with alder, ash and maple. The northern bank of the upper section is partly touched by private plots and on the southern bank of the upper section private plots are touched to a lesser extent. All vacant land is of course forbidden to enter!! The course of the river in the upper section is largely calm.

The middle part of the river from just upstream "Gamla Elverksbron" and down to the bridge at Åtellet, "Flyfishing stretch", the river drops out about 3m, which naturally creates a course from weak to strong flowing sections under average water flow. After longer periods of rain, the flow can become very high, which makes certain parts of the middle section unsuitable for wading. The beaches along the middle section mainly consist of hard surfaces that make accessibility minimal, which requires wading. Wading takes place only from one side!! Follow the directions!!

The lower part of the river stretches from the bridge at Åtellet and out to the diving valleys in Norrtälje harbour's inlet, which is level with the sea tower. The beaches along the lower part consist mainly of hard surfaces. Availability is very good!
