Messlingens FVOF

Welcome to Messlingen's fishery conservation area!

In our waters there are trout, char, brook trout, perch, lake, brook trout (implanted), elritsa and rockfish.

Messlingssjön is 5 km long and in the middle of the lake it is 10-40 m deep. In the lake there is coarse trout that can be difficult to catch, there is plenty of smaller trout. The perch is numerous and weights up to 1 kg are not uncommon. Char is found all over the lake, the occurrence of less char is large, but in recent years the average weight has increased and fish between 200-500 g are often caught on ice fishing in the winter.

The middle up and downstream is good trout water and it chops on fly, haul / spinner and angling with worm.
In Mittån above the lake and below the iron bridge there is good fish. Watch out for beaver tunnels along the river.

In Brändåstjärn was planted in 2019, 350 smaller chars from the lake which have since gained good weight. The association will continue to move fish from the lake to the ponds in Servdalen and Brändåstjärn.

Messlingssjön is not regulated but downstream towards Grundsjön there is a fishing barrier that prevents whitefish (and unfortunately all fish) from getting up in Mittån. We are now investigating the possibility of creating a passage that prevents whitefish but allows other species to ascend along the river.
