Escorted Sea Fishing Norway Sandbakken Lodge

Similar Holidays
overview
Every fancied going on a fully escorted Sea Fishing trip to Norway in search of Large Cod and Coalfish well now’s your chance, after many requests we have again for 2012 added a 1 week trip hosted by our guide Paul Stevens. This is a self catering holiday with self drive boats to our location on the famous Solbergfjorden fjord which is North Norway and home to the real Norwegian sea fishing.

Sandbakken Fishing Resort has an idyllic location on the shores of the Solbergfjorden in Sørreisa beneath 1000 m high mountains. Fishing Solbergfjorden, which is protected from the open sea by Senja, Norway's second largest island; the fishing conditions are therefore not affected by the rough sea and still provide the same fishing opportunities for Cod, Coalfish, Haddock, Redfish, Catfish, Halibut and mighty Salmon.

Fishing is conducted from our self-drive boats, which are all Silver Viking 18 feet, with a 30Hp, four stroke electric start engines. The boats are very roomy and steady at sea ideal for up to four anglers, however on the group trip we have based everything on 3 anglers per boat They even come equipped with sea charts, echo sounders to allow you to fish right over the marks.

The boats are moored right outside the accommodation on our custom-built jetty. As these are all self-drive, you can fish as much or as little as you like, no time limits on these trips, if you want, you can fish until you drop. All boats also come with full safety equipment, life jackets and a 24hr mobile telephone number for any difficulties while fishing.

Our guide Paul will rotate his time between boats and is there to ensure you get the most from your holiday.

If you are a single angler or a group looking to join and escorted holiday and have always wanted to try the fishing in Norway this has to be the holiday for you.
