Emån, Nyboholm to Klövdala

The total length of the eman is about 22 km. The river begins in Nässjö municipality and flows into the sea on the border between Oskarshamns- and Mönsterås municipality. The river is classified as a Natura 2000 area with a large number of valuable species associated with the water system, both in flora and fauna. The river contains more than 30 different fish species with characteristics such as moth, sea trout, salmon and ferns. Within the municipality of Hultsfred there is a distance of just over 50 km of Emån. On this stretch there are two different fishing areas.

The first stretches from Nyboholm, Kvillsfors in the west to Klövdala in the east. The stretch of stretch is part of Järnforsen's fish conservation area. It also includes lakes such as Järnsjön, Vensjön, Oppsjön and Viksjöarna. The river can be found in connection with the road that runs between Målilla and Vetlanda. The river is surrounded by forest and cultivated land and contains both streams and calm lots, environments suitable for different fish species and different fishing methods. Where the river is narrower it is shallow and flowing and in the calm, wide and sharp turns the depth can be down to 5 meters, sometimes even deeper.

The bottom mite after roach and bream goes well on the stretch at Fröreda where you find the fish in calm floating holes and where the river turns. There you can also find great pike and the most effective way to get in contact with larger fish is to float with bait fish where the stream is calmer. On the route pike have been taken over 12 kg and fish between 5 and 10 kg are common. Even bottoming after pike in deep holes is a good method. It is also good to spin pike with a wobbler, jig or with a spoon pull. Good places for rough pike are around Fröreda, downstream of the Järnsjön lake and downstream of the hydropower station in Järnforsen. Sometimes you can find larger perch in the deeper and calmer parts.

When fishing, it is advantageous to move during the course of the fishing and for pike it is preferable to fish for a place for an hour and then move to a new place. Färna is a ferocious carp fish that likes to keep in contact with streaming parties and in places with stones and trees in the water. The distance can be found in principle on the entire route. Good distances are around Fröreda and downstream of Järnforsen. Good methods for the ferns are bottommeats and since the ferns are an omnivore you can use many different baits such as cheese, sausage, shrimp, bread or corn.

The best time for ferrying is April and May, but as the farmer is active throughout the year you can fish for it during all seasons. During the summer, farna fishing with floating bread on the surface is a highlight during the fishing year.
