The folk sport of Härjedalen |
 Spring is knocking on the door here in Härjedalen even though the rest of the winter will be clinging in for a few weeks. The easter Holidays are usually the last chance for the ice fishermen to test their skills, and local tradition has this week to be the most active in regards of fishing contests. The Countryfisher participated in one of the traditional family contests in the famous side valley of Härjedalen, Vemdalen. Vemdalen is know for its ski resort, and during the summer the Vemhån, as side river to Ljusnan, is a popular destination for sports fishermen.

Ice fishing - Vargknaet pond |
Ice fishing season 2009 - Vargknaet pond.
On January 10th we were a bunch of guys from work who had decided to go visit one of the smaller ponds out in the terrain. he pond is so far out in terrain that it can only be reached by snowscooter during wintertime. In summertime it is possible to get there preferably by a 4X4 car or a car with good clearance below due to the bumpy forest roads.

 Since we have reached the end of the regular guiding season we figured now would be a good time to follow up on ideas we collected during the season in the never ending search for new waters to present to our customers.
We decided to checkout some of the lower areas of the river Ljusnan that is rumoured to inhabit large numbers and sizes of northern pike along with other species like perch, roach, vendance, greyling and occasionally giant brown trouts.
