Nice trout from Litla late season 2010

So I've finally found some time to do part 2 of that article All you need to know about fishing in Iceland. My hope is this will give you some general information about fishing in Iceland or various freshwater species. All the articles I have written for the site can be found here. The new article, Fishing in Iceland: all you need to know part 2. can be found here. So now I'm sure you'll be able to find them.

I've been very busy these past few days booking trips for the upcoming season as well as do planning for the RISE - Fly fishing film festival set in March here in Reykjavik. I need to gather all the info on our packaged trips and post updates on what is available for the upcoming season as well as new trips formed that can do with extra rods. I guess I'll gather all the info plus some new and exciting news and publish in a bif ol' newsletter. Hope you're all subscribers!!

Tight lines,

Stjani Ben

Soon... Very soon! Brown trout fishing in Iceland

It's been too long since I last wrote a news story here and there is a reason for that. For one I've been setting up a new website for us and that takes a lot of my time these days as well as the steady flow of enquiries. I am redesigning our website to make it easier to navigate around and I'm also going to be adding more information material on fishing in Iceland and the various aspects of that.

We have some exciting times coming up with the RISE fly fishing film festival and the start of the fishing season in just a few short months. I've secured the opening of the Brunna River so I will personally be reporting from Brunna and Litla Rivers in the north on opening day.

We have started booking for our May trout fishing trips and we can add more people to the groups there. We also have open spots on Reykjadalsa in May that can be combined with for example Litla River. Both rivers have special offers in May. And speaking of Litla River we just came into two rods for 3 days July 3rd, 4th and 5th. So send me an e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it if you are interested in those days. The Litla River is otherwise fully booked from July 2nd - 12th.

Happy New Year

So 2011 will soon end and a new year begin. We look back on 2011 with great joy and gratitute as this has been our best year so far. We've met a lot of super nice people and made good friends along the way, people we have met on our trips. I would like to take the time to thank all of the people that came to Iceland to fish with us in 2011. I did not meet all of you personally but for those of you I did meet I had a great time with and I hope you all did as well.

We have a busy period coming up as January rolls by both with bookings for 2012 as well as the planning of the Reykjavik RISE fly fishing film festival that we are hosting. We have some open spots here and there on trips that we have already started booking and if you are looking to join a group of other anglers and share their guide you should keep updated here as we will announce all open spots early in January. You might also want to keep updated on Facebook and Twitter as well as subscribe to our newsletter.

Anyway - we at Iceland Angling Travel wish you all a happy new year and we hope to see you all fishing in Iceland in 2012.
