Fly Fishing in Norway

Norway's Best Kept Fishing Secret

"Fly fishing in Norway" usually evokes images of mountain trout and salmon rivers. But Norway has so much more to offer.

Saltwater fly fishing on the South Coast is a true hidden gem that combines a stunning landscape with fast-paced fishing, species variety, and the intensity of the ocean, while still accessible enough for a quick weekend trip.

The day is active: you traverse the rocky coastline, stripping streamers aggressively through pressure zones where predators hunt. The fishing is action-packed, and one setup is all you need to target the full species lineup.

When to come

The coast of Kristiansand offers fantastic fly fishing from June through September. Cod, sea trout, and wrasse will be better in the early summer, whereas the later summer will see larger average size of pollack and swarms of mackerel will begin to appear. The whole summer offers fantastic fishing.
