Located in the heart of Skjern River's most productive fishing waters and just a 2-minute walk from both Skjernådalens Anglers' Association and Borris Fishing Association's waters, Skjern Å Lodge "Reden" offers an exceptional stay for fishing enthusiasts. From the kitchen, you can see some of the river's prime spots, such as "The Salmon Ladder (Laksetrappen)" which marks where the old weir was before the river restoration. The salmon haven't forgotten this location, which today is just a prominent current. The spacious house features three double bedrooms and two single bedrooms, a large double living room with a wood-burning stove, a dining area, a flat-screen TV, a cozy nook, and a fly-tying station. Additionally, the house includes a new kitchen and bathroom, a utility room, and the heart of the home, the "Rodhouse," where each fishing day begins and ends. The "Rodhouse" has space for rods on the wall, fishing gear, and waders, as well as a spot to relax and warm up by the second wood-burning stove. The house is adorned with fishing photos and drawings, enhancing the full fishing vacation experience. Even when you're not out fishing and are simply relaxing in the house, you'll feel the pulse of the river.

River Skjern grows bigger after the junction with River Karstoft. It is from 6 up to 12 meters wide. The landscape is still hilly and the small forests are replaced by open fields. The river wriggle like an eel, and the flow is quick. Short fly rods, 11-13 feet, fit well here.
This is the upper part of River Skjern. The stretch begins at Arnborg at a place called “The Confusion”. It ends where River Karstoft joins the River Skjern – between Skarrild and Sdr. Felding. The river meanders through a landscape alternating between moorland and forest. The river is quite narrow, no more than 4-8 meters wide. The current is fast and solid soil structures (hardpan) on the bottom create varied currents. Short fly rods and short shooting heads fit perfectly here. The fishing pressure is moderate leaving plenty of room for exploring large areas. Even with stormy weather from the west, it is possible to find places with shelter up here thanks to the hilly landscape and the winding path of the river.
Just before the town of Borris, River Vorgod, a major tributary, meets River Skjern. Downstream of the junction, the river grows to a width of 10-20 meters. The stretch upstream from the road bridge at Borriskrog contains some of the deepest parts of the entire river. Here heavy sink fly lines are required during the spring fishing. Downstream the bridge, the landscape changes character. The hilly landscape is replaced by a more flat and open one. Here there is little shelter when the west wind blows. The windy conditions and the size of the river call for fly rods from 12 to 14 feet in length.
Three kilometers downstream of Albæk Bridge, River Omme meets River Skjern. The additional water from this major tributary makes River Skjern grow to a width of 20-30 meters. Here, even a 14-foot long fly rod suddenly looks small. Many salmon are caught in this lower part of the river, and the stretch attracts many anglers. On the map above you can see the fishing spots mentioned in the descriptions of the individual zones. Use the River Skjern map to get an overview of all the pools and fishing spots in River Skjern.

Water management River Skjern
The Skjern Å Association carries out ongoing water care projects in various places in the River Skjern system. The projects are often carried out together with the local associations or in collaboration with one of the 5 municipalities that cover the system. The projects are most often carried out in smaller streams where the laying of spawning gravel can be done by hand or with smaller machinery. On the other hand, there is almost always full value for the effort. Trout and salmon quickly find the new spawning areas, and the improved conditions provide a high density of fry.
