In the municipality of Ydre, located in southern Östergötland there lies a fishing system which consists of Östra Lägern’s deep, rocky-shored clearwater lake, Sjöarp-Öasjön’s forested shallow lakes, and the Bulsjö stream and small lakes. Together, these three smaller fishing conservation areas combine to form Ydre Fiske. The fishing experience in Ydre Fiske is enhanced by the wide variety of fish species present and the diverse locations for angling, all set in a beautiful natural setting in the scenic, hilly terrain at the edge of the southern highlands.
