Feragen statsallmenning (Røros)

A state commons at Feragen, 655 m above sea level in eastern Røros, with 13 fishing lakes and six species: brown trout, Arctic char, whitefish, grayling, perch and pike. One open cabin in the area. Clear water, so silver and natural colours first, but bring a wire trace if you want to try the pike.

The fish here

  • Brown trout

  • Arctic char

    Often in deeper water in mountain lakes. Small spoons in red or natural colours. Best morning and evening.

  • Whitefish

    Hard to catch on lures, usually taken on net or worm. Rarely a sport target, but present in many waters.

  • Grayling

    Loves nymphs and small dry flies. A discreet presentation in clear water. Common in Lågen.

  • Perch

    A shoaling fish. Small jigs, worms and spinners. Coloured water can take louder colours.

Other fish in the water
