It normally weighs around 3 kilos but can reach a weight of 20 kilos. Found in deep fjords and prefers depths of 200-500 metres. Tusk is considered a good food fish. 04 The halibut is the largest of the flatfish, and large halibut are commonly found at depths of 300-2,000 metres. Halibut fishing is illegal during the spawning season from 20 December to 31 March. This species is characterised by its big head and enormous mouth. The head accounts for almost half the body length, which can reach two metres. It is found in shallow waters and as deep down as 600 metres. TURBOT HADDOCK COD The cod is one of the most common and commercially important of the saltwater fish. It is found at depths down to 600 metres. The haddock is easily recognisable by the large black blotch under the pectoral fin. It is a bottom feeder which is commonly found at depths of 40 – 300 metres. PLAICE COALFISH The coalfish has a strong and muscular body and is an excellent swimmer. It is found at depths of 0 – 300 metres. The common size is 30-50 cm and the weight around 1 kilo. Some females grow as big as 100 cm and can weigh over 7 kilos. The plaice is easily recognised by its distinctive red spots. There are rich stocks of plaice in the North Sea, down to depths of 250 metres Turbot is a flatfish found along sandy shores, where it stays almost stationary near the bottom. It is an excellent food fish (firm, white flesh) and fetches a high price. Turbot can weigh up to 25 kilos. SALMON The salmon spawns in fresh water but lives most of its life in the sea. When the young are 2-5 years old they leave their natal river and migrate to the ocean where they swim great distances in search of food. FISH SPECIES MaCKEREL The mackerel is a fast swimmer and lives in vast schools near the surface from Morocco in the south to Finnmark in the north. SEA TROUT REDFISH The redfish is found all along the continental shelf at depths of 100-500 metres, though it has also been caught at 900 metres. It can measure up to 100 cm and weigh up to 15 kilos. HERRING TUNA Northern bluefin tuna is a rare species that is sometimes found along the coast of Norway in the summer season. Commercial tuna fishing stopped in Norway in the 1990s. LING The herring can grow to 40 cm. It has a compressed body with large silvery scales and a large forked tail fin. In Norway, an adult herring (2.5–4.5 years) is known as ”feitsild” (fat herring). Its long, slim body makes the ling easy to recognise. It is normally found at depths of 300-400 metres. It can grow up to a metre long. A good food fish similar to cod. CATFISH (WOLFFISH) POLLACK SHORT-SPINED SEA SCORPION The catfish (wolffish) is distinguished by the dorsal fin that extends all the way along its back. It can grow as big as 125 cm and 20 kilos and can be found as far down as 450 metres. Pollack is easily distinguishable from coalfish by the dark line that arches sharply behind the first dorsal fin. Pollack weighs up to 10 kilos and is a common fish along the Trøndelag coast. A well camouflaged fish which prefers a sandy seabed, where it buries itself in the sand. Considered a good food fish, but there is no commercial fishing of this species in Norway. Found from the shoreline down to depths of 250 metres. 05 In Norway sea trout are found in large numbers all along the coastline. The sea trout can grow as big as 14 kilos, though this is rare. Just like the salmon, the sea trout runs up rivers and lakes to spawn. MY FISHING PARADISE ÅKE (SWEEDEN) TJÄNA! Bessaker in the Fosen peninsula is beautiful and the locals make us feel welcome. I go to Bessaker at least three times a year, sometimes with a group of like-minded fishing enthusiasts who return year after year. For me, the fishing festival is a ”must”. One of my best memories is from a visit in April, when we went on a picnic to Flatøya and the weather was fantastic. Spring comes early out here on the coast. 06 The nature is stunning, the cottages are nice and the boats are sturdy. The pub and grocery shop are also a plus. But the friendly people are the most important thing in this place. TON (NETHERLANDS) HI! After many years of fishing trips to Ireland we decided to try Norway. On the advice of good friends we headed for Leka. Here I found my fishing paradise and the catch was bigger than I had ever dreamed, a halibut weighing in at 62.5 kilos. You can read about and see pictures/video of my fantastic adventure at www.leka-camp.no/ton_nientied.htm In Leka we were received by friendly hosts and top standard boats. Another benefit in Leka is the opportunity for variety. The open ocean is within easy access but it is also easy to find smoother waters. ADVENTURES FISHING TACKLE AND TIPS Useful tips for your fishing trip: The choice of fishing tackle varies from angler to angler and depends on whether you are fishing from land or a boat. An inexpensive and standard fishing set will meet the requirements of the occasional angler. That should also ensure that the rod, reel and line are compatible. However, if you are planning to catch fish such as halibut you will need more specialised tackle, for example a fishing belt, a shorter rod and a strong line. Choosing the right tackle Fishing from land When fishing from land you need a long rod (8-10 foot) with a good bend. This will let you cast your lure far to reach the point where the fish are and avoid getting snagged when you reel in the lure. Two good all-round lures, which are suitable in most conditions, are the Jensen Pirken and Møre-silda, and these should be part of any lure kit. Choosing a line is also important. A thick line is stronger but it will not glide as smoothly through the rod rings when you cast, which means a shorter cast. A thin line is easier to cast far but it could break if you catch a large fish. As a guide, use a 0.30 mm – 0.40 mm line. As a rule of thumb, the spool should have 150 metres of line. Last but least, you must select your lure and bait, and this will depend on the fishing method. Boat fishing methods Long-lining – a long line with several shellfish imitations or shiny spoons is dropped to the bottom and reeled in at varying speed. Jigging – using a jig weighing a minimum 250 grams. The line is lowered to the bottom and pulled up about half a metre before the jigging starts. Trolling– fishing with a rod from a slow-moving boat; can also be used to catch fish that live close to the shore. Bait fishing – using squid, snails, mussels or shrimps as bait. Common method to catch species such as flounder or whiting. Asking local anglers for advice about fishing tackle could significantly enhance your fishing experience. GPS At most resorts GPS is included when you hire a boat. Using GPS improves safety and also helps you find the best fishing grounds. You can plot a chart in advance and follow the directions to the fishing grounds and back. Your resort host will be able to help with chart plotting. Fishing knots Here are two standard fishing knots suitable for many types of tackle. Simple lure knot: Fishing from a boat ”Bear” knot: Fishing from a boat increases the chances of hooking large fish. As you don’t have to cast far, it makes sense to use a shorter and stronger rod than when fishing from land. Tip: make sure the line is lubricated when you tie the knot. If the line is dry friction will increase the temperature when you tighten the knot, which increases the risk of the line breaking when the big fish bites 07 The lure should not weigh over 30 grams to prevent it from sinking too fast, although this does of course depend on the conditions where you are. If you are fishing for cod in deep waters you will need a heavier lure. When it comes to selecting lure colours, the amount of daylight is a good guide; use light colours during the day and darker colours at twilight and during the night. When choosing a line it is important to consider the weight of the fish. A line with a bit of stretch increases the chances of successfully reeling in the fish. Laws and regulations concerning fishing at sea Fish stocks near the coast are under pressure and we need stronger collective action to ensure that future generations will be able to enjoy recreational fishing in Norway. The fish in the ocean belong to us all, and we are focused on safeguarding fish stocks for the future. Minimum size regulations From 1 January 2010 any fishing at sea must comply with size limits. The aim to enable more fish to reach breeding size. You are responsible for keeping yourself updated on current regulations. Angling at sea is free There is no charge or requirement for a fishing permit for recreational fishing for saltwater fish with a rod or hand line. This also applies to fishing at sea for sea trout, salmon and sea char, although there may be local protected areas around river estuaries. Fishing is permitted all year. 08 Foreign tourists Foreign tourists are of course welcome to enjoy free fishing in Norwegian waters. Please ensure that you comply with the following simple rules: • Handheld tackle Foreign tourists are only allowed to use handheld tackle when fishing at sea. Nets, pots, traps or lines are not permitted. • Trophy fish You are allowed to take up to 15 kilos of fish and in addition one whole trophy fish out of Norway. Freshwater fish such as salmon, trout and char are exempt from the 15-kilo rule. • Fishing rules near fish farms Fishing is not permitted within 100 metres of the nearest fish farm. Boats must not pass within 20 metres of fish farms and their mooring systems. • Sale of catch Foreign tourists are not permitted to sell their catch. For further information about laws and regulations concerning sea fishing, please visit www.fiskeridir.no LAWS & REGULATIONS FISKE SAFETY OG SIKKERHET In order to avoid accidents at sea you must familiarise yourself with the safety-at-sea guidelines before you set out in a boat. 1 Think safety Familiarise yourself with the boat, make sure you know how many people or the total weight it is capable of carrying. Remember that in small boats it is important to keep the centre of gravity low and to avoid standing up. Prepare in advance for potential unexpected incidents. 2 Bring all required equipment Landing hook – makes it easier to get the fish into the boat Oars – in case of engine failure Anchor – use a small anchor to prevent the boat from drifting Baling bucket – in case the boat springs a leak GPS/map and compass – learn how to use this equipment First aid equipment – in the event of injuries 3 Show respect for the weather and sea conditions Check the weather reports before setting out in a boat and get information about local conditions that affect currents and shallow waters. Anyone born after 1/1/1980 must have a boat driving licence to operate a boat bigger than 8 foot or with an engine bigger than 25 hp. 5 Use a life jacket or boat suit The law states that everyone on board must wear a life jacket; be particularly cautious with equipment for children. 6 Ensure that you are rested and sober The alcohol limit is 0.08% while on board a boat. If you are rested and alert you will handle any unforeseen incident better. 7 Be considerate We are all responsible for each other’s safety, welfare and the environment 09 4 Comply with the safety-at-sea rules The safety-at-sea rules regulate traffic at sea. According to these rules you must give way to boats approaching from starboard (right) and to boats you catch up with. Motor boats must give way to sail boats. Leisure boats must give way to commercial/working boats If you are within 50 metres of land your speed must not exceed 50 knots. Comply with local speed limits. Make sure you are visible at night. Avoid collisions and use lanterns. FISH RECIPES Three simple recipes for cooking fish. Depending on the kind of fish you have, you can fry it, poach it, bake it or make a delicious fish soup.

MY FISHING PARADISE STEVE (ENGLAND) HELLO! My shore fishing holiday to Trøndelag has been one of the most amazing experiences that I have ever had. The professional service and quality of fishing was beyond my exspectations. The Trondheimsfjord produced the dream fish I came to Norway to catch, a 2.5 kilo Plaice at Straumen, Inderøy. 17 GUIDo (GERMANY) HALLO! My name is Guido Perkrul and I come from Germany, near Hamburg. In 2013 I will take my fourth trip to Einvika in Flatanger.

Further out in the Namsenfjord is the island Otterøya, which has a large population of roe deer. The Nord-Trøndelag county gallery is located in Namsos. PHOTO: OLAV BREEN Flatanger is the southernmost coastal municipality on the Namdal coast and can be reached by exiting road Fv17 - Kystriksveien – at Sjøåsen 40 km north of Steinkjer. The Utvorda fortress, which was built during World War II, faces the open ocean and boasts fantastic views of the Folla sea. The lighthouse Villa Fyr (2836) was Norway’s last coal-fired lighthouse and has been well preserved. Villa Fyr is accessible by boat, e.g. from Einvika Overnatting. Rørvik is located in the sound Nærøysundet, which is a busy shipping lane. Here you will find the coastal heritage centre Norveg. Every evening both the south and northbound Hurtigruten coastal liners call here. Why not go aboard for a visit? You will find workshops selling high-quality ceramics both in Overhalla north of Namsos (road Fv17) and in Nærøy (road Fv769), and glass art in Namdalseid (road Fv17). BY BIKE Exploring the Namdal coast by bike is a fantastic experience. Combine the cycling tour with a ferry trip between Namsos and Leka. Check out our cycling brochure with route suggestions: (www.kystriksveien.no) PHOTO: OLAV BREEN The island of Leka is Norway’s geological national monument. The serpentine coloured mountains on the island’s western side bring to mind landscapes from completely different parts of the world. The rock centre at Leka Motell & Camping is a good starting point for learning more about the island’s geology. Next to the ferry terminal is Bertneshaugan, Norway’s second-largest burial mound. THE NAMDAL COAST Fishing on the Namdal coast Anglers will find rich pickings along the coast of Namdal, whether they prefer fishing from land or from a boat. You can catch arctic cod from February till April, when it migrates from the Barents Sea to Vikna. Arctic cod served with liver and roe is a local delicatessen, and Rørvik even has its own arctic cod festival in March every year. In contrast to many other parts of the Trøndelag coastline, the Namdal coast has a vast archipelago, with thousands of islands. The islands provide shelter from harsh weather and strong winds when you are fishing from a boat, but if you prefer the open sea then the island of Leka is a good option. The area also offers good halibut fishing. Sometimes it is tempting to try fishing in the open sea. In both Rørvik and Flatanger you can join larger boats which are licensed to carry tourists and whose skippers can guide you to the best fishing grounds. Good to know about The Namdal coast: Airports: There are airports in both Namsos and Rørvik served by the airline Widerøe: www.wideroe.no The nearest big airport is Trondheim Lufthavn Værnes, located 4.5 hours from Rørvik and 2.5 hours from Namsos.

I like fishing in my spare time, particularly for crabs, and I often share my catch with curious visitors down by the pontoon. I put out my crab pots both from my boat and from land and the traps are nearly always full. I often give tips to Norwegian and foreign landlubbers about where to get a good catch in Hasvåg, though they usually catch more than enough fish without my help. ADVENTURES I think it’s exciting to talk to visitors from other countries, and in my experience you can easily make yourself understood by using body language. Pay a visit to Hasvåg, I spend nearly all my spare time fishing so chances are we will meet! 23 TOMMY (NORWAY) Are you looking for the perfect destination for a fishing holiday? A place you can reach by both plane and car? Where your family can enjoy themselves with activities such as sea rafting and kayaking? Then Rørvik Rorbuer is the place for you! Not only do you stay in a fivestar seaside cottage, the opportunities for fishing are endless, whether you are a beginner or an experienced angler in pursuit of the ”ultimate” catch. This could be your ”once in a lifetime” experience. 20-kilo cods, halibuts of a size you can only dream of, haddock, pollack and red fish... The sea depth around the many islands and rocks near Rørvik means heavy rods are unnecessary. Even with rods of 15-20 kilos, the catch is good! One of the most interesting things about Rørvik is that you can fish in the sound of Nærøysundet, so you don’t have to go far out to sea to catch a lot of fish. The sound’s orientation is northeast to southwest, and it opens to the north and the south, so the wind can blow from any direction without affecting your fishing. If you lack the right equipment, or if you are inexperienced, it’s no problem. The resort has the perfect equipment for hire/sale and a guide who can advise you on where to fish. 24 PHOTO: YNGVE ASK BUSINESSES FISHING HOLIDAY Hitra and Frøya 25 Order our broschure!
