## Gear and lures

- Spinning

### Lures in the mountain lakes

Spoons and spinners in the larger lakes. Forollsjøen suits anglers with the patience to wait for the big fish, and lure anglers do well there.

- Fly

### Fly in tarns and shallow lakes

Class 4-6. The shallow Fjellsjøen and the tarns in the Østgård area suit the fly rod. The Skrukka fly-fishing zone needs its own card.

- Bait

### Worm for family fishing

Worm and float in the Vangrøfta lakes, where the chance of a fish is high. Permitted tackle is fly, worm and lure.

### Lures and flies that work here

- **Sølvblink 10–15 g** spoon
- **Mepps sølv str. 1–2** spinner
- **Nymfe (naturlig)** fly
