Stilling-Solbjerg Lake, like many lakes in the Gudenå system, has experienced an arrival of the zebra-striped hiking mussel. For the past 10 years, there has been an increase in visibility in the lake, which is why species such as zander that before thrived in the unclear water are now having difficulty, and have been in decline. However, fishing for pike and perch have experienced an increase. In addition to pike, perch and zander there are also lake trout, eel and various coarse fish.

Stilling-Solbjerg Lake is privately owned and you have to be allowed by a landowner to fish here.
