Brown
trout fishing |

The stream Vindelån or the upper
part of Vindelälven, as it is also called, is pure
brown trout water.
The grayling does not swim further up than to the
rapid Vindelåforsen by the bridge at Northern
Ammarnäs.

Introduction
The section for fishing at
Vindelån is approximately 15 kilometres. It is a
water with forceful streams and slow waters
alternating. The crystal clear water requires
you to move cautiously and to keep a low profile
to succeed with your fishing.
As usual you chase the big trout at dusk when
they leave for a more active search of food.
Vindelån is a very good water for fishing a dry
fly. |
|
Season
The season stretches from when the spring
flood decreases at the end of June until the end of August.
Standard flies for brown trout in stream waters like
Klinkhåmer Special, Elk Hair Caddis and Special Pupa work
well in the area. Big imitations of caddis flies are never
inappropriate at brown trout fishing. |

Fishing licenses
