Fishing trip - Orkla - week 35 - Øverøyen and Vella Snoen
From 24/8 to 31/8 - 8 rods in total.
The beats
We fish on Øverøyen and Vella Snoen.
Øverøyen is located in the middle part of Orkla by the town of Å. The beat is one-sided and consists of 3 zones – Resosen, Mellemhølen and Saghølen. All 3 pools offer nice holding spots and good fly fishing from our side of the river.
Vella Snoen lies in the same part of the river and is also one-sided, but holds several good places on "our" side of the river.
Both beats are fished from the left side of the river, so that you cast over the right shoulder.
In 2022, we lost quite a few more fish than we landed, but we did get more fine salmon on land, with the largest measuring 103 cm.
The river and the salmon
For many seasons, Orkla has been among the best salmon rivers in Norway. We recommend two-handed fly rods 12 – 15 feet with a good selection of lines in different densities. Here at the end of the season, there may also be an opportunity for "dry" fishing with "riffling hitch" or bombers. This is absolutely some of the most entertaining and exciting fishing ever.
All salmon fly fishermen are welcome - regardless of whether you are a beginner or have experience in salmon fishing. If you need instruction, that will also be possible. There will be an introductory guide to the fishing grounds on the first day.
What is included in the tour?
- 7 days of fishing in Orkla on Øverøyen/Vella Snoen
- 7 nights in a house by the river - there is accommodation in single rooms.
- Introductory guide to the fishing waters.
- Instruction in fly casting and practical fishing on request.
What is not included in the tour?
The fishing trips we offer cover access to the fishing itself as well as accommodation, therefore there are conditions that you have to take care of yourself. It is important that you relate to this. We are happy to organize an information meeting, for example via teams, as it can be difficult to gather everyone on a team depending on where they live.
- Transport to Norway ( The trip is a self-drive trip, which is why it is necessary to have a car or a seat in another car available).
- Transport to and from the river in Norway.
- Meals and drinks ( There is of course a kitchen in the house, where the food can be prepared and consumed).
- Fishing equipment (clothing (waders etc.), fishing rods, fishing reels, flies and various additional accessories and equipment)
- Travel insurance
Rules that must always be observed
Note: The rules for fishing in Orkla mean that there are quotas on how many salmon each individual fisherman can bring home. This means that "catch and realease" is an important part of fishing. The rules for the river are updated every season and it is the duty of every fisherman to thoroughly familiarize himself with the rules. Link: https://orklaguide.com/fiskeregler-2/
Disinfection: Fishing gear must be disinfected before fishing begins. Disinfection can be carried out in several places in the immediate area and costs a fee that is paid on the spot. Link: http://orklaguide.com/desinfisering/
Salmon licence: Everyone who fishes salmon in Norway must be in possession of a state licence, which can be purchased via the following link: https://fiskeravgot.miljodirektoratet.no/
