Scania lake ,Sodertalje,Sweden - a walk in the sun

The Scania Empire building !- it stands proud viewed over its lake


The lake is still well iced up

Building end of the lake is upto 70 metres free of ice

Early anglers on the right hand side trying a little spinning

Top end of lake on the small bridge - ice free upto 100 metres



Very little snow left on the side of the bank



Beavers in the woods !!.........they have been in winter lodgings here

Another tree in the background had fallen victim to those sharp teeth

Bridge


Back of the bridge is a small basin area which is fairly shallow and should provide early season sport for small skimmers,roach and odd tench as it warms up fast

Beaver home in the top corner


Very still and out the wind just here

Scania engines at the back

Ummm !....could fish it now!.....any F1's here ?

Still piles of snow.....will take weeks to see this go

Melt down fully on its way........welcome fishing season
