Description from the source
Show the full source description

Fishing in Östtjärn is organised by Allsta Byamän. As early as 1963, Östtjärn was treated with rotenone in order to create a new water with game fish. Fish stocking was discontinued for 25 years but resumed in 2009. Östtjärn is leased by Tuna Östra FVO. Östtjärn lies just south of Sundsvall. The distance from the centre by car is approximately 12 km and it is an excellent alternative to fishing around Sundsvall. There are also walking trails and ski tracks from the Sidjön outdoor recreation area connecting to the tarn. It is 29 ha in size and has a depth of 29 metres; there are therefore good conditions for Arctic char and trout. Since there is natural self-reproduction of both trout and Arctic char, fish weighing up to 4-5 kg can be caught. In recent years Allsta Byamän has stocked 2-year-old trout and created better spawning beds for Arctic char. Fishing is permitted between 1 October and 31 April inclusive. During the period before ice formation, fishing from a boat and float tube is permitted; at other times ice fishing applies. There are one or more "put-and-take" waters with stocked game fish in the area. Free fishing for children and young people up to and including the age of 15. Only in the company of a guardian/adult/person who has a valid fishing permit (on that person's quota). Östtjärn lies approximately 1.2 mil south of Sundsvall city centre. The water is focused on Arctic char and trout fishing.
