4,176-acre lake near Bräcke. The lake tops out around 27 m. Depth here is modeled from the true shoreline and max depth rather than surveyed; use it to plan, not to navigate. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
På kartan täcker Bodsjön 1 730 hektar innanför 57.6 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 3 öar. Strandlinjen är kraftigt flikig (index 3.9) — vikar och uddar överallt, vilket mångdubblar den fiskbara kanten. Cirka 60% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 14.2 km, som bredast 6.1 km. Vattnet hör till Bräcke kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Gäddsjön, 6.4 km åt söder.

Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 10 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 2 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Sharp break (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Sharp break (5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts brown trout in skinny water — 1 to 7.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 7.5 to 18 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 11 m. Forsaån inflow is the standout, an inflow / creek mouth at roughly 2.5 m, rated prime for spring brown trout. Plan around after dark and early morning in the warm months. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Forsaån inflow (2.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Sharp break (5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Forsaån inflow (2.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Forsaån inflow (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european grayling in 0.5 to 3 m. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 4.5 m, wintering in 2.5 to 7.5 m. Top water on the chart: Forsaån inflow, an inflow / creek mouth in the 2.5 m range, prime in spring. Time it for the evening and early morning. Summer baits: a dry fly (caddis, terrestrial) or a nymph under an indicator gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Forsaån inflow (2.5 m) | Small dry fly (midge, olive), Inline spinner #0-1 |
| Sommar | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Forsaån inflow (2.5 m) | Dry fly (caddis, terrestrial), Nymph under an indicator |

| Vinter | 2.5 to 7.5 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (5 m) | Tiny jig + maggot, Small mormyshka |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: lake whitefish in 4.5 to 14 m. As the season builds they drop to 8 to 27 m, wintering in 7.5 to 21 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 23 m range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |

| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (23 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 2 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: arctic char in 1 to 4.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 6 to 18 m, wintering in 3 to 12 m. Top water on the chart: Forsaån inflow, an inflow / creek mouth in the 2.5 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | midday & dawn | Forsaån inflow (2.5 m) | Small casting spoon (silver/orange), Jerkbait (small) |

| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | midday & dusk | Sharp break (5 m) | Casting spoon (orange/gold), Beadhead streamer |
| Vinter | 3 to 12 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (5 m) | Jigging spoon (glow/silver), Tungsten jig + plastic |
