Guided Fishing in Norway

Norway is a sea-fishing destination in a class of its own, with stunning scenery, generally sheltered sea fishing and a huge choice of species.

There is always a chance to beat your personal best big cod, big halibut, coalfish, or wolfish as well as many other species. Our clients frequently report 30, 40 & 50lb cod each season with 60 to 70lb cod caught occasionally. Haddock can also weigh into double figures; huge halibut exceeding 400lb have been reported in these waters, usually in late summer into early autumn. Big coalfish also arrive close to shore in the Troms Region in late summer these can exceed 30lb plus.

The combination of the Gulf Stream and the Arctic Ocean, together with Norway's strict commercial sea fishing policy has resulted in an increase of big coastal cod and halibut populations.

Off-season fishing is great value, not quite as prolific as high summer, but big cod and halibut can be targeted. Located 300kms above the Arctic Circle these sheltered fjords provide 24 hours of daylight from late May into early August.

Bespoke skippered fishing can be arranged from Lauklines Fishing Centre with Marcus at Explore the Arctic. Fish the pristine and rich waters outside Kvaloya, west of Tromso. Angling trips include skipper/guide, all fishing tackle and transfer from Lauklines. Ideal fishing for groups of 4 to 6 anglers with half and full day charters available.
