SPORT FISHING & BOAT RENTAL

Stay only 150m from Lake Virisen which contains fine stocks of both char and trout. At the lake shore is also the boat park and boathouse. In summer fishing from a boat and using a
longline / wobbler is popular, as is fishing with a rod and reel in one of the tarns on the other side. On the Granån river, it is possible to fly fish along a stretch of 2 km. Fishing licenses can be obtained from the County Administrative Board in Västerbotten County . Here you will also find other information about fishing on state waters in Västerbotten County. In winter, char can still be caught, if you know how to ice fish. Virisen is Västerbotten County's largest unregulated mountain lake, in it and the surrounding small lakes there is a natural stock of trout and
char.

WINTER FISHING

When the char is on the chopping block and everything is right
-the sun shines

- the sausage grilled
- the coffee boils
What could be better on a spring-winter day!

On Virisen and surrounding ponds, there is only char and trout, best fished with a fishing rod, glitter and maggot. You can go down on the lake about 200 m or take the skis, if you want to get a little further away to try your luck, snowmobiles are preferable. Season January - May

Snowmobiles are available for rent. Ice fishing rods are available to borrow. Farm shop with fishing equipment. Bring maggot with you.

INFORMATION

BOATS

In summer we have 10 boats with 4-stroke engines. 3 boats are larger wooden boats, the others are 4.5 m plastic boats. All boats are safe and well suited for fishing on the lake. Life jackets are available for each boat.

In our farm shop there are sports, fishing and outdoor equipment and supplies. By the lake we have a boathouse where each cottage has its own lockable locker. Barbecue area and a wood-fired sauna are also available by the lake.

The boat you rent is fully fueled and ready, you refuel yourself when you need it from the can in the cupboard that belongs to your cabin. Tool kit included with all engines, notify us in case of damage to boat or engine. Boat propellers are reimbursed with SEK 800 other damages according to agreement.

PPull up the boats really. In windy weather, you should be extra careful even so that the boats do not rub against each other. Fish remains are buried on the bog to avoid diseases that can be spread via seagulls, a shovel is available at the reindeer table. We leave no rubbish in nature. Clean the boat well on departure.

Start the engine

The engine should be in neutral, the gear lever is on the left side of the engine.

Open the air screw.

Pull out the choke.
Pump 4-5 times on the black bubble on the fuel hose.
Pull the starter cord, not too hard - when the engine starts, close the choke.
Let the engine idle for a while, do not use the choke as the engine is hot as it will become acidic.
Remember to unwind the engine during the day to avoid acidification.

Common faults when the engine does not start.

Emergency stop out?
Pinched petrol hose?
Forgot to open the air screw? Is the engine is flooded?
If the engine has become really flooded, you have to change the spark plug, the tool kit is under the cover
