Fishing Report Lofoten Norway, It seems to be the month for huge Coalfish from our camp on the Lofoten Islands called Å. As another group of guys turned up at this camp they all had in mind fine Coalfishing conditions and were not let down. They tried all sorts of techniques from vertical jigging to surface popping and by the looks of things all done very well they even managed 5 seagulls….
With top fish of 18.5 kilo just over 40lb it really is the best place in Norway to get yourself a very big Coalfish. If you have never fished for Coalfish then you will be in for a very nice surprise as these fish fight hard, in fact the fight is more like what you would get from a fish in hot water, they really give it all in the fight.

Some people spend lots of money travelling to places such as Panama and Costa Rica for action equivalent to the power of the Coalfish and let me tell you, if you do not mind slightly cooler conditions then seriously you should be looking at this destination in Norway for the mighty Coalfish.
