Swedish guests on Nordic Safari

This week we have a group of Swedish guest here on Nordic Safari, they arrived this last Friday and are here to exploring fishing around Nordkyn peninsula. Their first day they caught several good size cod with a top on 15 kilo. Yesterday they went out on a shorter fishing trip close to land because of the bad weather but succeeded to catch some fishes. This morning the weather was great and they went out Northwest of Nordkyn peninsula to try their luck. Not only did they catch plenty of cod but lost a couple really big ones so tomorrow they are out for revenge!



Happy guest!



The catch of the day! 15 and 10 kilo cod.

22 kilos cod at Europe’s most northern point

For a couple days ago a German guest here at Nordic Safari caught a 22 kilos cod at Europe’s most northern point, Kinnarodden. They went out in one of our Hansen 18 feet boats this last weekend to fish at the area northwest of Mehamn. Except the 22 kilos cod they caught several cod over 10 kilos and the good fishing has continued these last days with plenty good sized cod.
