The Fishing
River Gaula
The Gaula River flows through the heart of Trøndelag in Central Norway and is one of Norway’s most renowned salmon rivers. Surrounded by beautiful Norwegian scenery, the river offers a unique combination of challenging salmon fishing, impressive fish and a wide variety of water suitable for two-handed fly fishing.
Gaula is known for its strong Atlantic Salmon and has a long-standing reputation among salmon anglers from around the world. The river offers everything from powerful pools and fast-running water to more technical sections where presentation, technique and fly choice can make all the difference.
For anglers looking for classic Norwegian salmon fishing, Gaula is an exceptional destination. The river provides excellent opportunities for two-handed fly fishing, with conditions that can change significantly throughout the season as water levels and temperatures develop.
Our fishing is based on a strong focus on quality, exclusivity and respect for the river and its salmon. With carefully selected fishing water and plenty of space, you can enjoy the experience of fishing Gaula in peaceful surroundings, surrounded by the spectacular nature of Trøndelag.
Whether you are an experienced salmon angler or looking to experience Norwegian salmon fishing for the first time, Gaula offers the opportunity to pursue powerful Atlantic Salmon in one of Norway’s most iconic rivers.
Salmon season runs from 1st of June to 31st of August.
Kregnes
Kregnes offers 3.7 kilometres of prime salmon fishing divided into three zones, where zone 1 and 2 is double bank , making it the longest continuous stretch of fishing water on the Gaula. This provides a unique opportunity to experience a large and varied section of the river, with numerous different pools that allow you to plan and adapt your fishing from day to day.
The beat is well known for its large Atlantic Salmon and the great variety of fishing it offers. There are pools that fish well at both high and low water, making Kregnes an exciting destination throughout the season. The many different pools, currents and water conditions provide excellent opportunities for traditional two-handed fly fishing, allowing you to adapt your approach according to water level, weather and where the salmon are holding.
Each of the three zones has its own Gappahütte, providing shelter where you can take a break and keep an eye on the river. There are also two boats available for crossing the river, giving easy access to different parts of the beat. On Zone 3, you will find a large covered dining area where you can relax, enjoy a meal and share the day's fishing experiences.
One of the great advantages of Kregnes is that the entire fishing area can be reached on foot. There is no need to drive between different sections of the beat, allowing you to move along the river and explore the water at your own pace.
You decide how you want to divide the fishing among the group and where each angler wants to fish. This gives you the freedom to organise each day according to water levels, conditions and personal preferences. Some days you may choose to focus on specific pools, while on other days you can explore the entire beat and fish a variety of water.
In short, Kregnes is a salmon fishing destination for anglers who appreciate big salmon, varied water, excellent fly-fishing opportunities and the freedom to plan their own fishing experience.
