Fishing

Sea trout and salmon

For those who enjoy fishing sea trout and salmon will find the lakes and rivers in the area attractive. Fish migrates through both lake Fjellvatnet and Storvatnet on their way to Aunelva and other spawning locations. Each year several nice sea trouts and salmons are caught in these lakes. Trolling is an effective method. If you want fish rivers Øvereidelva and Aunelva are good places to start. The Øvereidelva is steep and swift, but Aunelva offers fishing in calm and slow flowing waters.

Trout and arctic char

In the lakes of the Eide watercourse you will also find brown trout and arctic char. If you are out trolling for sea trout/salmon you might just as well hook up with a big brown trout. The arctic char is usually not the biggest and is often caught on spin fishing equipment. In addition to the Eide watercourse you will also find char in the two lakes called Mølnvatnet. The lake close to mountain Hardangsfjellet usually holds the best sized fish of two Mølnvatnet lakes. Lake Godvatnet is one of the best lakes for trout fishing on the estate.

Mountain lake fishing

Lake Søbergsvatn is classic mountain lake, with trout of good size and quality. Several of our guests claims this is the best lake on the estate for trout fishing. Lower- and upper Urdstjørn are also fine lakes. The upper lake holds the biggest fish.

Location

Vassbyda is known for its large lime stone deposit with several large caves, wetland areas, large forest areas, rivers, and waterfalls. At the inner part of the Eide water system, at the northeastern part of the lake Storvatnet, lies Kalbekkvika. A dense  moose population and a strong population of Golden Eagles in a scenic landscape is hard to forget once you have walked its paths and experienced it firsthand.

The Cabin is located just by the water “storvatned,” You have a clear view of this crystal clear water and the Tuvfjellet -mountain when looking out the window or sitting in a chair on the  cabin porch. There is a dirt road taking you all the way to the cabin door.
