Fishingtrip Iceland Flateyri
Iceland – you may immediately think of geysers, glaciers, waterfalls and volcanoes. But first and foremost you will certainly think about the almost 5000 km long coastline, the marvellous fjords and of course the incredible fishing trips in Iceland Flateyri resources.
Hardly any other sport fishing destination has made so much furore during recent years, like this island in the North-Atlantic Ocean, where the warm Gulf Stream and the cold water from the East-Greenland currents meet and provide about 270 different fish species with huge nutrition.
Westfjords
If you take a look on the map of Iceland, you will discover very quick, that long parts of the coastline are totally uncovered and thereby encounter the mood changes of the Atlantic Ocean. In the Westfjords on the other hand, you will find a coastline structure that reminds rather to the one from Norway – numerous Fjords, which can – depending on the wind direction – still give you opportunities to fish in covered areas, even sometimes when winds are stronger.
The Icefjord is the largest fjord in the region and cuts about 75 km into the land.
The Fishing Villages Flateyri and Sudureyri
In Flateyri and Sudureyri you will find comfortable houses/apartments for self catering. The distances to the fishing hot spots are short, thus both places are perfect destinations to start the hunt for the big predators o the sea.
You will mainly be fishing on the legendary sand plateau, which is located on the outside directly at the entrance of the fjord. In just about 20-50 metres deep water you wil ecounter incedible numbers of Cods in all sizes. Not seldom you will have the chance to beat the 50 lbs mark — Cods close to 70 pounds have een caught here already by anglers.

Furthermore Wolffish, reaching more than 20 lbs can be found close to the shoreline, but also on the Shell Banks of the Sandplateau
The drop off at the exit of the Icefjord, where normally big Cods and sometimes also Halibuts are hunting in a range of 50-100 metres, is also not far away. Particularly in late spring and at the end of the season (September), those spots are absolutely hot spots for the very big fish on fishing adventure in Iceland Flateyri.
