Tips for your fishing trip to Saxnäs

We update the information continuously:

Are you thinking of going to Saxnäs to fish?

Then this blog post is for you.

We at Team Baitbox have been fishing in Saxnäs for several years and here are our best tips.

In Saxnäs there is a rich fishing that suits everyone. Many bodies of water are also within easy reach of the Fishing Centre, Kultsjögården and Saxnärgården. Fishing can be done in streams such as Saxån, Kultsjöån, Satsån, Fiskonbäcken and Marsån. In Saxnäs there are also many smaller lakes and ponds both on the Stekenjokk calf mountain and in the forest land, Njakafjäll.

We have chosen not to reveal the names of lakes, fishing spots along flowing water, tent sites or the like in detail precisely because we get so many requests about this. If you want to explore the places we visited more closely, we reveal an incredible number of clues in our films from saxnäs, and there is plenty of information about this online for those who take the time to look.

Fishing license and information on site.

For the purchase of a fishing license and tips or information about water during your stay in Saxnäs, we can recommend a visit to the Fishing Centre.
Mattias Nilsson or someone else on the staff is usually available there and can answer any questions about fishing water, the best fishing for the day or which flies are in effect right now, etc. At the fishing center there is also a shop where you can buy fishing and outdoor equipment, fishing and hunting license, mosquito repellent and mountain maps, coffee and soft drinks, ice cream and sweets.

Fishing licenses can also be bought online via natureIT. (their site has great potential for improvement, but you can find the right one if you want).
