Norway has always conjured up special and precious images. Mountainpanoramas, fastflowing crystalline rivers, very large leaping silverfish…These are the scenarios that have earned Norway its reputation as theworld’s premier sanctuary for the elusive Atlantic salmon. The intensiveNorwegian summer is a very pleasant experience; one can enjoy the midnightsun, whilst fishing for large salmon. Norway’s best salmon fishing is to
be had during the nicest weather periods of the year. |

The top ten rivers in Norway are still taking 8-30 tons of salmon to therod per season. One of these rivers, the Gaula differs from the majority ofNorwegian rivers, in that the majority of the best waters fishes very wellto the fly. The Norwegian Flyfishers Club also offers water at thebeautiful Forra River. The Norwegian Flyfishers Club manages privately leases on thebest beats with classic fly water on these rivers and restricts all toflyfishing only, which is becoming something of a speciality in Norway’sheavily “spun” and harled waters.A few decades ago the British discoverers had to use steamers and coaches,sometimes travelling for weeks before arriving at their sportingdestinations! Nowadays it is an easy 2 hour flight to and a 15 minutedrive from the Trondheim airport to the Forra, and about one hour 15 minutedrive to the Gaula, into another world. It is a beautiful, but wild landscapewith fascinating fly only beats run by the NFC. It is water that wasleased more than a century ago by Sir Henry Pottinger as well as the Dutchess ofMarlborough. The NFC now invites international flyfishermen to fish fly
only at reasonable prices. |
|
In both the Gaula and Forra, fish of 20 to 25pounds are the most common,30 & 40 pounders are taken each year, as well as a few of over 45 pounds;every cast offers the chance to take the “fish of a lifetime”. The Norwegianrecord seatrout came from one of the clubs pools on the Forra River andweighed in at 31 lbs 15oz.The fishing at the Gaula is made up of approximately ten kilometers whichbreaks down to nine beats that are fished on a rotational basis. Due tothe nature and variation of the pools there are several that fish well in allheights of water and some superb high-as well as low- water pools. Fishingat the Forra is reglemented to a maximum of four rods on the NFC-water,
which means than two pools per fisherman. |

The Club has organised an extremely competent team of guides. All areaccomplished flyfishermen and speak English. The NFC accomodates itsguests either in the comfortable local hotels or in the Clubs Country Houses(Self Catering). Hire cars and hire tackle are available.
