Fishing in Norway is a breathtaking experience! It should be on every angler’s bucket list, both because of the incredible nature surrounding you and the natural phenomena happening all around. Voss Fishing is based in the Hardangerfjord region, in Granvin.
Captain Justin Hawxhurst will not only take you on his boat, but he will also do his best to teach you the different techniques he uses to target fish that inhabit the fjord. Gaining a bit more knowledge and learning to do something new will make your day on the water even more enjoyable.
You’ll be fishing aboard a 15’ Askeladden 475. The boat accommodates up to 3 guests to maximize comfort. She’s fitted with a Lowrance Elite 5 TI sonar, life jackets, and a 50 HP Yamaha outboard engine.
Once you meet the captain in the harbor, you’ll go through the safety and equipment briefing, and head out to your fishing spot. It will only take 10–20 minutes and you can start fishing. You’ll mostly target Salmon, Cod, Lake Trout, Flounder, Pollock, and more. You can keep the catch if you want and the captain will clean it for you free of charge.
Capt. Justin will cover your fishing equipment and lures, while you need to bring proper clothes, sunglasses, sunscreen, food, drinks, and a cooler. No license is needed for Norwegian saltwater.
Voss Fishing looks at fishing as a way to go out in nature and relax. Their main focus is to create a lifelong memory. Once you see the beauty of the Hardangerfjord, you’ll realize it’s almost inevitable.
