Fjord fishing in the beautiful, legendary #esefjord surrounded by high, picturesque mountains: - When I was a little boy, my mother used to send me out to the fjord to catch the fish called: Sand Whiting. They are fun to fish, bite easily on the hook and taste good for lunch. Some call them “Fjord Chicken” What a cool name!

CATCH YOUR OWN FOOD INGREDIENT OR JUST RELEASE PRESSURE
How about catching your own fish and cooking your own dinner when you get home? Butte-fried fish served on a piece of seed loaf and with homemade salad and a bottle of the fruit drink: “Sparkling Margaret” from Balholm. It tastes like rhubarb and evokes nostalgic summer memories. Light some candles and put on some bossa nova music in the background… Then you have created a real dining experience that you do together. Buy raw materials easily in the grocery store next to the Balestrand Adventure house.
How about a bag of fish soup, and add pieces of your fish, isn’t this easy?
ps:: Not able to cook yourself? Try the tasty Sognefjord Seafood Sandwich at Kviknes Hotell after the trip and something good to drink..
PRISTINE FJORDS - I’M LOST IN THE MONENT
2) Fishing trip to the smallholdings in the beautiful #fjærlandsfjorden is excellent for traditional trolling allonge the cliffs for pollock, mackerel, salmon or trout. This is the local culture of fishing and relaxing in the fjord landscape. The Fjærlandsfjord in bright season is green colored by the melt water from the glacier village #fjærland. Here we also find diverse animal and bird life such as eagles and occasionally killer whales looking for seals and porpoises. In the late winter, the deer stay down on the shore.
