Join a unique fishing adventure on the fjords with a local skipper and marine scientist. Experience authentic fishing on the Sørfolda fjord. Step aboard Morild and head out into the surrounding fjords in search of iconic Arctic fish species such as Cod, Sei, and Halibut while enjoying the dramatic coastal scenery.

This is more than just a fishing trip. You will learn about the local marine ecosystem, sustainable fishing practices, and the fascinating life beneath the surface. Guests are invited to take part in simple citizen science activities by measuring and recording catches, contributing valuable observations from the fjord environment.

Whether you are an experienced angler or trying sea fishing for the first time, this private tour offers a personal and memorable experience close to nature. With small groups of only 1–5 guests, the trip can be adapted to weather conditions, fishing opportunities, and your interests on the day.

Cod, Coalfish, Halibut, Common Ling, Pollock, Atlantic Mackerel, Wolffish, and more can be found in these waters, depending on the season. We will use a variety of techniques depending on conditions and target species, including vertical jigging, slow jigging, spinning, and, during summer, exciting topwater fishing when Sei and Pollock feed near the surface.

Please note that fish species, abundance, and fishing success naturally vary depending on the season, weather, and daily conditions. While catches can never be guaranteed, we do our best to provide the best possible conditions for a memorable and authentic fishing experience on the fjord.

The beautiful Sørfolda fjord offers a spectacular Arctic landscape where steep mountains rise directly from the sea, creating dramatic scenery in every direction.

The trip includes guidance during the activity, fishing equipment, safety jackets, a light snack and coffee, and fuel (included for trips up to 20 nautical miles round trip). A fishing license is not included.

See you on the water!

Born and raised in Italy, where my passion for the sea began at an early age, I was inspired by curiosity to dedicate my career to studying fish populations and the sustainable use of our seas. I specialize in fish population dynamics and stock assessment, with a journey that has taken me from the Adriatic Sea, where I completed my PhD in fisheries management, to the Baltic Sea, where I explored how fishing and environmental change affect marine life. Outside of my work, I enjoy playing guitar and foraging for mushrooms in the forest. At Terramare Fjord & Gård, I bring science, nature, and community together through eco-tourism and citizen science experiences, inviting others to discover the beauty of the sea.
