Icelanders have gone Ice Fishing for centuries, the fish is under the ice, it isn't asleep.
From December to end of March the frozen lake provides an opportunity to walk on the ice, drill a hole and start angling. After the fishing we take out our BBQ and grill the catch (or other delicacy) on the ice!
We begin this minibus tour with a journey to a frozen lake. The thick ice on the lake makes it difficult for the fish to find anything to eat, so when we remove snow from the area we want to fish, the light will attract the curious and hungry fish underneath the ice. Once on the lake we drill a hole through the ice and begin fishing with rods specially designed for ice fishing. We give you plenty of time to enjoy fishing, the peace and quiet and the scenery!
Tour length is about 3 hours.
