Enjoy this all-inclusive outing into Norwegian nature and live like a local: learn to catch your own fish in the frozen fjord, and cook it for lunch!
Take a trip to the frozen fjords surrounding the city of Tromsø to experience the traditional Norwegian custom of ice fishing. With the help of our guides, learn to catch fish beneath thick layers of ice, and cook it on an open fire at one of the barbecue huts nearby!
We will pick you up in Tromsø and drive no more than 30 minutes to a nearby frozen fjord, where we will set up base for our fishing expedition. We will provide you with all the necessary fishing equipment, including security equipment such as ice picks and life jackets.
In this period of the year, there's a big migration of Arctic cod, or Skrei, that makes its way around Northern Norway. These will be the dominant type of fish we will attempt to bait. We will drill our ice hole, prepare our bait, and reel out our rods into the water, waiting for a bite.
With a little luck, we will all manage to catch a fish, after which we will transport them to a nearby hut. There, we will learn to gut the fish and cook it on fire for our lunch! If we do not catch any fish, do not worry, we will not starve. A hot fish dish will be served one way or another.
We will make our way back to Tromsø around 3 PM.
