Ice fishing adventure
PRIVATE GROUP TRIPS
Ice fishing in beautiful surroundings and in a magical winter light. We arrange group trips by bus with an experienced local fishing-guide.
There are several easy available fishing lakes on the Hadsel island. Our fishing trips are always on lakes where the ice is thick and secure.
There is always a thrill connected to ice fishing. Are you patient enough? Will you catch a fish? What bait is the best for the day? What kind of fish may you catch? Is the fish too big for the hole in the ice?
“Give someone a fish, and he will be filled the whole day. Teach someone to fish, and he will be filled the rest of his life.”
– Chinese saying
We have our own camp in the area, where the fire always is burning. Hot drinks are available for our guests. The area is scenic, and you can experience the magical winter light in Vesterålen. This area is well known as a habitat for eagle families, and 100 years ago there was a cave which the eagle hunters used.
After about 2 hours of fishing we will grill todays catch on the fire. Hopefully we will be full of fresh fish, when returning to the pickup points.
