I had probably not quite counted on salmon fishing in this category existed in Kalix river. Big and strong ones. The salmon fishing wasn´t more difficult than usual and 3 salmons in 4 days where the largest was around 11 kg is now my personal record. Not to mention the one that robbed my new and expensive line. The menu was also a bit of a surprise and as a single complaint, I now have to start running again. It was definitely an exciting and ACTIVE fishing trip, I highly recommend you.

The dream of a proper trip in the wilderness finally came true. It was a spectacular area and it is hard to believe that it exists here in Scandinavia before seeing it in person. The 5 days spent in places that were untouched since the dawn of time were far more than I have expected.  “We will be back”!
IT consultant Brian A. Østergaard

 

Back to reality and so it was. A wonderful but also demanding experience and it will definitely not be the last. I have the utmost trust in Frank. It was obvious that he was raised with nature. One of the good things about him is that he makes it all work without too much talk. Finally he is able to make you trust his abilities, which proofs to be correct. He clearly knows what he is doing.

A wilderness trip puts everyday life into perspective and Frank is a knowledgeable and inspiring leader. I look forward to Canada Mountain river.

Salmon fishing in Lapland

Salmon fishing in Lapland 


After the salmon has finished its long journey up river, and before the fish begins spawning, it is generally easier to catch, and for distraction you will also find grayling and trout. Drifting down stream, we are offered lots of pristine fishing waters that are only available from the raft, and this clear water river is rarely visited, despite the fishing.

 

The salmon trip is for those of you, who value the combination of wilderness and fishing in clear water rivers. We mostly do drifting trips with smaller groups, and this is the way to see Lapland’s wildlife and hit a river’s best spots. Each day the campsite is located in a new terrain, where you can fly-fish along the river all by yourself. Here north of the Arctic Circle the midnight sun makes it possible to fish day and night. The moose comes down to the river in the evening and early morning, do bring your camera.

 

Bring high spirits - a drifting salmontrip is a team effort and a great adventure. Ajusting the daily distances, using our expedition equipment and a experienced guide, you are most welcome on board. We cook the fresh ingredients over an open fire under the Arctic sky, and aim to make the primitive days in the wilderness as pleasant as possible. This year we bring a Lavvu with fireplace, where we can sit, eat and stand upright. We spend the night in expedition tents, for more privacy.

Practical information:

No experience of the wilderness needed. We use extremely stable inflatable two-people-canoe rafts that are easy to paddle.

The trip is made on the terms of the wilderness and as comfortable and flexible as possible.

 

Accommodation:
At the campsite we aim to make our primitive days in the wild as comfortable as possible so we bring a lavvu with fireplace, where we can sit, eat and stand upright, and we stay the night in small personal tents. 5 nights in the wilderness with 1 night in cabin with sauna on the last day.


Catering:
The food in the wilderness is included.

The weather in Lapland can vary a lot. Although the weather is usually lovely in summer it is not unusual for it to change from heat wave to cold and wet weather in just a matter of hours.

We recommend that you read this material thoroughly.

Day 1-2. Travel to Lapland
We recommend going by train, through the Swedish wilderness all the way to Lapland. Flights are also avalible.

Day 3.
At arrival at the airport the group gathers. From here we drive directly to the river where we prepare the gear, put it in waterproof bags, pack our rafts and paddle the first short distance to a campsite. Camp is made, the first salmon pools are fished. Under the Arctic sky, the fresh ingredients we cook over the open fire are the ideal accompaniment to our fish, and in river we have the finest drinking water. The following days drifting down stream, we are only paddeling 45 kilometers, giving us plenty of time for fishing in the best spots. Each day the campsite is located in a new terrain.

 

Day 4.
Every day is mainly spent fishing and paddling through the wilderness. Campfire meals are made together using fresh ingredients and we enjoy ourselves with everything associated with life in the wilderness. If your desire for fishing has been met during the day, you can go on a photo-safari looking for moose and other animals that come to drink. Back at the campfire we have something warm to drink in front of the river’s salmon pools.

Day 5-6.
After a few days you forget the everyday life back home and a new day presents itself by being in the wilderness on its terms. On the way we reach a small but difficult waterfall. The current is strong so we line up our rafts along the banks of the campsite at one of the trip’s best fishing grounds. The salmon's heavy splash further boosts the joy of fishing and it is supplemented by campfire fun long into the night.

 

Day 7.
In the morning we start by casting our line the last bit around the waterfall before we continue to the last overnight stay of the trip. Here awaits soft bed in cottages, a hot sauna and a swim in the cool water of the river. The salmon are in the waterfalls just below the cottages.

Day 8-9.
On the last day we paddle 5 km down to the road where we are picked up and driven to the airport.
