Fishing in the middle of Sweden
Fishing in the middle of Sweden is the collective name for a number of quality fishing destinations all of which are geographically situated in Hälsingland in central Sweden, only 2.5-4 hours north of Stockholm Arlanda Airport!
“A unique area where you are usually completely alone during your fishing experience; this is true whether you are fishing along the coast, at sea, in one of the meres, in the mountains or in a flowing watercourse”.
As an angler you will have the opportunity to be the first to cast your rod for a pike or zander! Pikes that measure more than one metre are not at all uncommon! FIMS is committed to protecting our waters and we work hard to encourage environmentally sustainable fishing by employing Catch & Release and habitat-care fishing measures.
Fishing destinations
All destinations in Fishing in the middle of Sweden are of a high standard and the vast majority of areas are directly connected to the fishing grounds you will be fishing in, this means that you as a FIMS guest, will be given the opportunity to fully enjoy your recreational fishing experience. You don’t have to travel long distances, if you want, you can simply go down to the jetty where the boat is, or try your fly rod in the flowing watercourse.
You stay in a house, cabin or room which has a toilet, shower and self-catering facilities. Most of our destinations offer access to the internet and have a TV. If you really want to enjoy a luxury stay, and focus entirely on your fishing experience, some of the FIMS destinations can offer “all inclusive” which includes breakfast, lunch and evening meal, as well as transfer to and from Stockholm Arlanda Airport.

Guides
Fishing in the middle of Sweden has a wide network of qualified fishing guides! The fishing guides have an excellent local knowledge of fishing waters, species, fishing techniques, fishing regulations and which times of the year that are interesting, depending on the species you want to fish. To optimise your chances of experiencing your “dream catch”, we recommend that you book a full day with one of the FIMS fishing guides.
In one day with your personal fishing guide you will receive knowledge of fishing regulations, tips on the choice of bait to use, methods and current fishing spots in the waters. If you fish from a boat, your guide will also show you where it is dangerous to go, bearing in mind rocks and other things that can spoil your fishing experience. As a guest, you can then consult your personal guide via telephone during the remainder of your stay, if you have any queries about fishing.
From your fishing guide you will also learn more about the area in general and the fish conservation measures in force to protect the habitat.
