Olderø fly fishing Lodge in Norway

The fishing

Lakselv river runs through Porsanger, Finnmark county, in Northern Norway. It has for many years been a relatively unknown river compared to the bigger rivers in the area. In recent years this pearl of a Salmon river has caught the attention of anglers who are looking for big Salmon. The average water flow is only 26 m3, but over the last couple years it has nonetheless been among the rivers with most big Salmon catches. Big Salmon typically range between 40 and 50 lbs, and the record stands with a a staggering fish over the 60 lbs mark.

If easy wading, two-handed fly fishing, and truly big North Atlantic Salmon is what you are looking for, then Lakselv is the perfect place for you. We offer exclusive catch and release fly fishing, where every angler has access to a lot of fishing water in this fly fishing paradise. Come and fish in peace and quiet in the midnight sun, and have many of the best pools for Salmon fishing exclusively for you in this amazing part of the Norway.
