Estuaries and salmonids
Estuaries are found almost everywhere in the fjords. I was naturally drawn to these areas, which are often very good spots. Beware, though, as many estuaries are closed to fishing (100 m on either side of the mouth), especially those renowned for their salmon runs.
Fortunately, some are authorized, but be careful not to fish inside the estuary, in freshwater, as river fishing regulations apply and are a real headache. Make sure you get all the information you need if you want to fish in freshwater.
On the marine side, where permitted, we find sea trout, Atlantic salmon, Arctic char and even recently pink salmon. The latter two are more common in northern Norway. Salmonids, sea trout and salmon, are often plentiful (even in salt water), especially on the incoming tide and in summer. I've had better results with soft lures than with swimfish or metal lures. In the midst of modest fish (rarely over 35/40 cm), I was lucky enough and delighted to lure a 70 cm missile! A superb sea trout and a good souvenir that's not so rare in Norway.
In addition to the sumptuous, picturesque fjords, we visited the islands and fishing ports along the North Sea coast.
Good news
Although at first sight it's possible to fish almost anywhere, access to the shore is rather restricted inside the fjords.
The roads often run directly along the banks of the fjords, and parking is not an option.
Even so, there are plenty of good fishing spots around towns and villages. In addition, the tides are fairly low, which makes fishing sessions easy, without the need for cumbersome organization or planning. Even at low tide, you can fish from the shore.
Even so, note that fishing in the fjords is best during the incoming tide.
The evening shot looks good, but I've caught fish at all hours of the day. Hiking and walking are also very pleasant activities in Norway, so I advise you to have a good pair of shoes. The rocks can be slippery, and I find it safer to fish from the shore.
To remember
In terms of equipment, an M or MH rod will be more versatile than a UL or L, as Norwegian all-rounders are solid. A reel size 2500 to 3000 is a good compromise. Remember to fill it with braid before setting off. As far as lures are concerned, straight jig heads were great, so much so that by the end of my stay I was using almost exclusively straight jig heads on salmonids. In crowded waters, a few bullets and Texas hooks are really useful when used with a small shad or creature.
Also remember to take a fluorocarbon spool. I only had 20/100 (6 lbs) and it goes everywhere, even if it can be fair. A good 8, 10 or even 12 lbs is not a luxury.
On the spot, you can find nylon, sometimes braid (rather large diameter) and metal lures. Apart from the limited choice, prices are very high.
Norway is one of the most expensive countries in the world, and it's better to take your equipment with you than to buy it on the spot.
I would also say that a landing net would often have been useful, but difficult to carry. I did without one, but if you have the possibility of carrying one, don't hesitate.
With just these lures and these techniques, in just a few hours of fishing, I would have lured 11 species of fish with varied profiles and quite a few beautiful predators, from the 10 cm gurnard to the 70 cm and even 85 cm sea trout!
