Stortjärn, Lillpite Fiske
Stortjärn is a small, beautifully kept fishing lake run by the volunteer-led Lillpite Fiskevårdsförening, tucked between the hamlets of Yttersta and Storsund in Piteå municipality in northern Sweden. It is the association's flagship put-and-take water: stocked every fortnight through the warm months with rainbow trout, brown trout and Arctic char, alongside native pike and perch, and open to anglers all year round. What sets Stortjärn apart is how welcoming and well-equipped it is for a single day out or a slow weekend by the water. There is a cosy six-berth rental cabin with a wood-fired sauna to hire, caravan and motorhome pitches, grill spots with stacked firewood, and lean-tos and fire rings scattered around the shoreline. The site is also genuinely barrier-free, with a long accessible ramp leading to a spacious fishing platform on the lake, making it one of the most wheelchair-friendly fishing destinations in the region.
