The other side of the fjord

Thirty kilometres from Tromsø airport the fjord narrows, and the sea starts to move.

Rystraumen carries the fish past our pier twice a day; the mountains keep the wind off the boats. Guests have fished here since 2016, and we still go out every morning.

Something is always biting.

Cod all year. Wolffish from February, halibut from March until the end of October, redfish and flatfish in high summer, mackerel when the light starts to shorten. In the polar night we still go out, for three or four hours around noon.
