3 RODS REMAIN SEPTEMBER 2-10, 2011. THIS WILL NOT LAST LONG AS SEVERAL RODS ALREADY BOOKED FOR 2012. This will be my first trip to this long awaited and faraway destination in the mystical land of the nomadic Mongolian herdsmen. And I have anticipated this adventure for a very long time. Here on the high Steepe you will find the very makings of your trip of a lifetime. It is a long ways from everywhere that you may be reading these words, but travel to a land totally surrounded by both China and Russia will be an adventure in itself. We work with a very experienced and well recognized outfitter named Mongolian River Outfitters who limit each trip to only 6 rods per week and a total of only 36 rods for the entire season. We fish for the legendary TAIMEN first and foremost as this is the species that most anglers pick Mongolia in the first place. It is the BEST in the world and these brutes run upwards to some 60 inches in length.

Taimen are strong, aggressive, top-feeding predators that strike flies on the surface which makes for very dramatic, explosive and  and memorable moments. You will likely experience many eye popping big fish during your adventure. You can typically expect several takes a day and most guests hook one to two Taimen each day. The single best day was 9 Taimen netted in n 2010,  In all, Mongolian River Outfitters netted some 200 Taimen in only four weeks of fishing this past season. and literally hundreds of Amur Trout and Lenok. Each day on the river, anglers and guides float from one camp to the next in fully outfitted oar boats. Every section of the river is only fished a few days each per season.  Our guides are some of the very best in the business. It is never too early to book a trip this inviting. 3 rods remain for the prime week of Sept 2-10, 2010.  Please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

We start in the morning and head to the area around glacier Eyjafjallajökull. We drive on rough roads and cross numerous glacier rivers to reach Thorsmörk glacier and volcano valley. We spend some time exploring these adventurous surroundings. In the early afternoon we leave this lovely rugged environment and drive down to the black basalt sand shore south of Eyjafjallajökull-glacier. Right here by the Atlantic Ocean we experience the enhanced driving ability with the partly deflated 38" tires. In the end off the day we head back to Rangá lodge.

We have some very good days available in Hvannadalsa, one of our rivers in the West-Fjords. We have been cultivating this river for a number of years now, and the results have been extremely good. A couple of years ago the river nearly broke the 500 salmon mark – on  only 3 rods. 

Like so many rivers in Iceland the prime season is from late July until late August, so these are very good dates.

Recent Catches

The River Dee saw a lot of anglers fishing the length of the catchment looking for the elusive salmon with catches reported from Park to Crathie. If you were in the right place at the right time there were fish to be caught. The numbers of fish running this river so far do appear to be well down on last year’s excellent spring catch with season to date catch of 1286 quite a bit down on the 5 year average spring catch of 2028. That said FishDee beats reported 143 salmon to 21 lbs and 8 sea trout. Carlogie had an excellent total with anglers catching 21 salmon, Aboyne Water and Birse reported 10 apiece with Ballogie and Cairnton just one behind on 9 apiece.

Blanda_opnun_2010_100607_8.jpg

The spring has finally arrived in Iceland and now we are all awaiting the summer with great anticipation. Even though the trout season has already started – we are all counting down the days until the salmon season starts. It’s only three weeks away.

 
Blanda is our first river to open on June 5th and in mid and late June other Icelandic rivers follow suit. Our new river Skjalfandafljot opens on June 18th (we are very excited about this one), the Ranga’s (East & West) come into play in the beginning of July and Vididalsa opens in late June. By July 1st all our rivers in Iceland have opened up.
 
Gaula in Norway and Kola and Varzina in Russia are in their prime in June – But Lakselva in Norway reaches the height of the season in July. 
 
The Dee in Scotland has been open since the beginning of February and began with a bang, low waters plagued the river in March but things are looking up now. 
 
In July we will welcome our first groups in the new hunting & angling camp in Greenland – our biggest hunting project to date.
