Each trip can be booked as an all in package or a *DIY - do it yourself - package.*Not for the Spitsbergen trip.

You can fully concentrate on fly fishing, enjoying the incredible nature, wildlife and your stay in one of our accommodations. DIY If you book a DIY trip with us you can skip parts from the all in list (see list packages page). On this list you can check what you need and what you don’t need. After that we do the math for you and you get the best price possible. Traveling light Travelling with a small group (not more than 4 people) keeps us, and participants, involved in each trip. This involvement not only ensures flexibility and effectiveness but frequently results in life- long friendships. Contact between participants is often maintained after the trip.

Norway facts Tranquility: Space is what Norway stands for. And with an area of 385,155 square km and a population of 5.2 million, you never have to worry about your back-cast. Weather: The summers are short but intense. With 16 degrees and the sun high in the sky it’s warm enough to fish in your T-shirt. Every month, from June to the end of October, has its own charm. The days with long light in the first months and the colour splendour of an ap- proaching autumn in the later months. Why choose Norway: The diverse landscape, the fishing possibilities and the feeling of wilderness only 90 minutes from Amsterdam is just unbelievable. Photo by Peter Sikking
area Glomma a fly fishing paradise The mighty Glomma river lives up to her name. With a lenght of 604 km you can speak from a mighty river. The problem with big rivers is always the same : finding hot spots! Of course we solved this problem for you! Photo by Peter Sikking
The Early days In the early days, when the river Glomma was mighty mostly used as a timber transport route, strong bearded men and women always addressed the river Glomma with a decent amount of Glomma respect. ‘The mighty Glomma’ wasn’t a river you could cross without a clear head and some know-how. And that goes even today.
Glomma Base Camp ‘YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE LAST WEEK’ The camp is situated in the middle of a true fly fishing paradise. That sounds like a marketing slo- gan but it isn’t! We were skeptical to. I think because we are used to hear: ‘you should have been here last week’ too many times. So before we invited guests, we did our home work. With help from local fly anglers we disco- vered 5 rivers all in a hour drive from base camp. Photography by Peter Sikking

Accommodation Cabin The cabin we offer is a 4-persons cabin with its own bathroom/shower, kitchen and livingroom. The cabin is situated directely at the Glomma river.

About Flies Photo by Peter Sikking
From small cdc sedges to heavy tungsten flies, all your typical trout and grayling flies will do the trick. Don’t forget your mayflies ‘ Don’t forget to bring mayflies’!

South East Camp Harda is situated at a 5 hour drive from Oslo. From base camp we From Camp Harda in the south we travel to the east part of Hardangervidda discover the south of Hardangervidda and the lakes/rivers surrounding by car. From here we offer several possibilities: Camp Harda. 1. a one day tour walking from water to water. 2. a one day tour fishing larger water. 3. several days tour (not included in the price). Photography by Peter Sikking
THE FISHING The lakes around Camp Harda are only accessible with a float tube or a rowing boat/kayak which are provided for your convenience in our all-inclusive concept. The river stretches (which become lakes and vice versa) can be reached by land. Hardangervidda is a rough and huge area with endless fishing possibilities. But there is one but: you have to be able to get to the water. The lake shores and surrounding land are mostly marshes and bogs. Fishing from shore is not always possible. A float tube or other fishing vessel is imperative. Your guide will help you to find good fishing grounds.

Adventure with a capital A Spitsbergen
General info Spitsbergen is one of the last true wildernesses on this planet. The big question of course is: for how long ?! That alone makes this trip a unique experience! Unique in every way This trip is unique in every way. Not only as a fly fishing destination but as a destination in general. It is going to be a life changing experience; that much is certain. Trip part 1 After landing at the airport of Longyearbyen, we spend the first night at the Longyearbyen camp site. The next morning we travel to the southeast by luxury boat. This destination can only be reached by boat. We’ll set up camp for 2 nights and fish for arctic char. Trip part 2 On the morning of day 4 we break up camp and travel, again by luxury boat, for roughly 5 hours to our actual wilderness camp, high up north (even higher up than the most northern town in the world Ny Alesund). A dinghy will drop us off at a remote beach. At this spot we’ll camp for 4 days fishing and explo- ring, using the included packrafts. On day 8 we’ll travel back, arriving back in Longyearbyen at about 5 pm, where we’ll have our parting meal together at the restaurant. Depending on which flight you have booked we say: “until tomorrow” or “see you soon”. Note: For protection reasons - enviromental, resource, sensitive locations - we do not communicate exact locations.
TRIP SCHEDULE IN SHORT STARTING FROM LONGYEARBYEN AIRPORT Day 1: Arriving at Longyearbyen airport and check in Long- yearbyen camping for the first night. Day 2: Morning transport - one hour by luxury boat - to our lake camp and fish for 2 days for arctic char.

Day 5 -7: Exploring and fishing around camp arctic wilder- ness Day 8: Transport back by luxury boat and arriving at about 5 pm at the restaurant for dinner. Checking in to Longyear- byen camping.

SCENERY We take you to the islands of Funen, Langeland and Tasinge. The islands landscape, with their clear, almost tropical tur- quoise-blue waters and high sandy cliffs, are just as stunning as the sea trout itself.

CATCHING SEA TROUT In spite of her nick name; ‘fish of a thousand casts’, catching a sea trout is on many wish lists. Small or big, catching a sea trout is always a trophy. Thanks to setrout.dk Photography by Peter Sikking
THE FISHING Sea trout Sea trout are known as the fish of a thousand casts. Not because they are particularly difficult to catch, but they do have to be present and around to catch them :) In spring, they rarely show themselves. In the beginning it therefore can feel a little over- whelming. Big water; where to begin? But with a little help from your guide, and after a few hours, you are going to recognize the good spots. Sea trout fever As it happens, it happens slowly. It sneaks up on you. It often starts with moderate enthusi- asm, but it is bound to culminate in: ‘I am going to buy a house here’. I have seen grown men going in over their wa- ders, filling them with ice-cold water, just so to be able to cast to that distant sea trout. Drip- ping wet and half-submerged fishermen with a grotesque smile from ear to ear. Sea trout hunters, having seen a “turner”, ending up (ef- fortlessly) casting for it for over one hour. only to have it turn out to be seaweed. “But it could have been...”. It is when you know the sea trout fever is on and no medicine in the world can cure it. Photo by Peter Sikking
ACCOMMODATION We provide several coastal houses on Funen and Langeland. Providing single rooms for everyone - unless requested otherwise. We can do so because we house groups of maximum 4/5 people in accommodation equipped for 8-10 persons. Thanks to Novasol

Swedish lapland Back to basic Iceland Dreams A bucket list destination
Welcome to the mid highlands Back to basics. That is what our Sweden trips epito- mize. A helicopter drop-off from the Ritsem area or Kvikkjokk area into the wild, a pick-up at a designa- ted rendez-vous seven days later, and total solitude in between. It’s all up to you. Photo by Peter Sikking
Trout & Char The mid-highlands of Iceland are famous for their good trout and char rivers and lakes. Fishing in this part of Iceland is fishing far away from almost everything. It is you and the unspoiled nature. It is going to be an unforgettable experience.
No limits There are no limits on fishing hours on the highlands. This means you can fish 24/7 (mid-summer). Fishing on the highlands is for anglers who are in a fair shape and like to walk and enjoy the privacy of the Icelandic highlands. You can choose to fish for 2-5 days.
Accommodation AUTHENTIC The highlands are covered with hundreds of lakes, little streams and rivers. We mainly fish the streams between the lakes. You stay in a rustic mountain cabin, which makes the experience even more unique and authentic.
TRAVEL SCHEDULE DAY 1 Your guide picks you up in the mor- ning, takes you to shop for groceries and then to the mid-highlands where you start fishing in the afternoon. FULL DAYS (1-4 days) Together with your guide you decide the fishing hours but he or she is with you fishing for up to 12 hours every day. Then you can keep going on your own if you want. LAST DAY Fish until noon, then pack your things, tidy up and drive back to Reykjavik. The guide will either take you to Reyk- javik or to Keflavik if you prefer.
