Siljan in Dalarna is Sweden's size sixth largest lake. The lake is 161 meters above sea level and the surface is 290 square kilometers, along with the neighboring Orsasjön and Insjön 354 square kilometers. The greatest depth is 134 meters. The lake is divided into several different fish conservation areas. There is currently only one trolling fishing license that applies throughout the lake, for "regular" fishing in Siljan, a fishing license that applies in the area in question must be obtained. At the depth map (PDF, see below) all areas are also excellent, as a guide to which fishing license applies each.
