Fishing for common dace — practise in real Swedish lakes

common dace is documented in 586 Swedish lakes on provfiska. Open a lake below and the simulation starts with common dace as the target — fish the water as it is right now, or turn time, season and weather.

Typical length: 13–24 cm · max 29 cmMost common depth: <3 mDocumented in: 586 lakes (23 survey-fished)

Where in the depth column is common dace?

Share of the national survey catch per depth zone. The simulation uses the same distribution — fish the right depth and you hook more, and bigger.

3-5.9 m39%

12-19.9 m<1%

Which method takes common dace?

The simulation's technique selectivity — how readily the species takes a lure, a baited float or a vertical jig. The wrong method doesn't catch the wrong fish, just like in real life.

Jigging
Spinning
