What we like about Å Gård Lavangen Sjøfiske
- ✓Waterfront cabins next to the marina, so you walk from door to boat in minutes
- ✓Lavangen is a deep fjord with short runs out to halibut grounds and steep walls that hold cod and saithe
- ✓Less crowded than Lofoten and the outer Senja coast, so fishing grounds are shared with fewer boats
Worth knowing
- !Inner-fjord location means a longer run out to the open coast than from camps on the outer shore
- !Limited services in Tennevoll. Larger shops are in Sjøvegan and Setermoen
Tips from experienced anglers
- 1Lavangen fjord has deep holes just off Tennevoll. Use the echo sounder to find edges at 80–150 metres for halibut.
- 2Run out to Astafjord and the mouth toward Vågsfjord for saithe and haddock in current-rich water.
- 3Check export eligibility before departure. Operators born on or after 1 January 1980 need a recognised certificate for craft over 8 m or with engines above 25 hp.
