Fishing

Trout and arctic char

In the shallow and productive lake Sørengvatn you can catch trout up to one kilo. Our guests at Sørengvatn have boat at their disposal. The river running from Sørengvatn to lake Storvatnet is a great place for fly fishing, and the lower 500 meters of the river holds salmon and sea trout. There’s also trout and arctic char in lake Storvatnet and Fjellvatnet. The char is mostly small but the brown trout can grow to 3 kilos.

For those who enjoy mountain lake fishing we recommend visiting lake Søbergsvatn. Its regarded as the best trout lake on the estate by many guests. At Søbergsvatn you will find a boat at your disposal and an extra hut where you can spend the night. Lower- and upper Urdstjørn are also good mountain lakes for trout fishing.

Sea trout and salmon

In the Eide watercourse our guests at Sørengvatn can fish for sea trout and salmon in 3 lakes and 2 rivers. River Øvereidelva is fast and with a lot of white water, but the inlet/outlet are good spots. Most of the spawning grounds lies above Øvereidet so a large proportion of anadromous fish pass through this point. PS! Guests at Øvereidet cabin have exclusive fishing right on the north-western side of the river. The river Aunelva is completely different, with its slow running water and meandering character. Perfect for single hand fly fishing.

Location

The innermost part of Eidevassdraget is different, but just as stunning as our places further down the water system. Large forest areas with a unique biodiversity, mountains with several lime stone caves, wetland areas, rivers, and waterfalls.

Standing outside the cabin or looking out the window, you have spruce and fir forest, but towards the water, there is a large open field with the Sørengvatn lake and the Søberg waterfall in the background. 

A gravel road leads up to the cabin door, making the otherwise isolated cabin easy to reach. Many find a quiet wonder and stillness from being here and an a large appreciation of spending time in unpolluted, pure nature.
