Angling in Iceland
Angling Club Lax-į is Iceland’s largest sporting outfitter offering numerous rivers around the country as well as fishing trips in other countries such as Russia, Scotland, Norway, Argentina and more.
Bookings for 2010 have started out very well and we are getting fully booked in many of our rivers prime periods. Fishing in Iceland is extraordinary, there you find a great variety of rivers from tiny streams where you need to crawl gently to so the fish does not see you to great big rivers where you fish double handed rods trying to cast as long as you can.
In Iceland, anglers fish from banks, boats are not used. All the rivers have in common that the water is very pure and even drinkable and the landscape is wonderful, remote and peaceful. We have a very strict fishing laws which determine how many rods are allowed to fish each river. So many of our rivers only allow 2 – 4 rods fishing at a time while the largest ones allow up to 20 rods. So you can easily go fishing for days with out running into other anglers, or even people in some places.
The Atlantic salmon in Iceland is remarkably strong and a great fighter, even the smallest ones give you great resistance and you always think the fish is bigger than it is. The last 2 years have been the best years in number of salmon landed in Iceland and some rivers are producing some increadable numbers of fish.
Lax-į offer all variety of fishing tours;
Guided fishing on full service rivers where anglers stay in ensuited bedrooms and are served 3 meals a day
Self catering rivers where anglers can choose to arange their own meals or to hire a chef and
then we have rivers where anglers can choose to stay at a hotel, guesthouse or even in a tent.
Lax-į has very talented and experienced guides to instruct and assist our anglers, we arrange for everything while in Iceland, hotels, rented cars, transports, day tours and just what every you might want to do while in Iceland.
