Tips from experienced anglers

  1. 1April is the best month for large skrei cod (20-30 kg+). May, August, and September are best for halibut (40-60 kg+)
  2. 2Watch the boat and safety briefing video before you start -- it is mandatory and saves time on arrival day
  3. 3Bring warm layered clothing, hat, and gloves even in summer -- it can be cold at sea inside the Arctic Circle
