Svalbardsa is a trully unique experience!

Svalbardsa is a river that every passionate salmon angler has to fish once in a lifetime. It has a large number of unique characteristics that I have personaly never found anywhere else: a massive diversity of waters and scenery, a massive quantity of fish including trully big fish (> 10kgs), an excellent lodge and some of the best guides I ever fished with.

I have been fishing there several times and it is just an obsession to go back... In 2009, my dad and I caught close to 80 fish on 2 rods in 4 days, including some nice 80cms fish. And such fish were caught using many different and exciting techniques: riffle hitch, upstream fishing, sunray shadow on surface, etc. It is just an unbelievable experience!"

Unlike anything I've ever fished!

"The Grimsa is a river unlike anything I've ever fished. You can see the photos and hear all the stories but until you've made it there in person, i'ts impossible to fully understand the hype. It's more than the gin-clear pools and huge runs of fish; it's the scenery, the people, and the atmosphere. It's a real experience, and a fly fisher's dream to find atlantics so eager to rise to a skated dry. I feel truly privileged to have had the opportunity to fish the Grimsa.

Favorite Iceland Salmon river.

"Laxa in Kjos is my favorite Iceland Salmon river. I fished it over 30 yrs. Its better today than ever. In 09 I landed 30% more salmon than my previous high. the Laxa in Kjos enjoys excellent accommodations,super meals, top notch guides and management, more importantly great salmon fishing. Don't forget the guides, they are true professionals!

I will never forget this trip

and hopefully one day I will be back to this adventurous place, with some of the best fly fishing on this planet. If you want to experience a week in a salmon paradise, this is the place to go.

Grimsa should be on every flyfishers rivers to fish before I die list.

"

After 6 days fishing we (7 anglers on 3 rods) landed a grand total of  67 salmons!

This was a fantastic trip and it is absolutely recommended for everybody who's interested in fishing. Great thanks to the staff and guides for excellent service. We will absolutely be back again next year."

I highly recommended!

Nearly one year on, I am still raving about the fantastic week's fishing on the Laxa in Kjos in July 2009. This was the highlight of my fishing trips over the past few years. Dry weather, not much water but in spite of the not so good conditions the fishing was amazing not just for me but for all of us in the Lodge. The excitement of that pull on the line was not just once or twice but many times during the day. Lots of photos to look back on to recall those great memories of a very special week at this just an amazing place. The new lease holders have done wonders with the new lodge and the food was excellent. A most memorable week,  I highly recommended.

Best wishes and kindest regards
