calm_entity Skrevet May 13, 2023 Rapporter Share Skrevet May 13, 2023 I will be in Stavanger for may and june the weather is starting to get better. I went fishing with a friend and he said mackerel and Sai(?) is common to catch from the shore, but we caught nothing, people are saying its too early. Is there any legal place to fish in lakes near Stavanger/Sandnes area? I do not have a boat or kaya. I have a spinning rod, general purpose and any lures that can be bought at local stores. Thanks Svar på innlegget Lenke til kommentar Del på andre sider More sharing options...
Davidsen Skrevet May 13, 2023 Rapporter Share Skrevet May 13, 2023 You could try Frøylandsvatnet or Bråsteinvatn. There you can go for trout and rudd. In Bråsteinvatn there also is pike. 1 Svar på innlegget Lenke til kommentar Del på andre sider More sharing options...
Gabriel Skrevet May 13, 2023 Rapporter Share Skrevet May 13, 2023 Stavanger has pretty good fishing opportunities both in the sea and in freshwater, it's mostly just about knowing the right spots. There's a lot of apps which use satelite data and sonar scans to provide you with good fishing locations these days so you could try those. Personally my favorite target species is Trout and Char and both can be caught in freshwater around the Stavanger area. You usually need a fishing permit to fish for them but those can be bought online at inatur. You just search for the location + fiskekort (which means fishing card). In May and early June you want to stay in the lowlands but late June the mountain fishing really picks up. On the 1st of June the Salmon season is also starting and a lot of people really enjoy that. 1 Svar på innlegget Lenke til kommentar Del på andre sider More sharing options...

With Salmon there's always the risk of getting a 10 or even 20 kg fish on the line so you want some decent gear. This one would be a very good choice: https://www.sportfishtackle.no/no/artiklar/dam-nanoflex-pro-salmon-stick-bc.html?variant=75836 My personal salmon rod is this one: https://agdars.no/lawson-atlantic-salmon-s3-aramid-haspel-12-til-60g But I think most people fish for Salmon with flies and flyrods. That's not necessarily because they're the most effective though. I'm not very familiar with what rivers exist around Stavanger so I can't answer that. But just know the almost every major river will have Salmon in it and that the prices for fishing Salmon can range from cheap to obscene. So you want a good river that's also in your price range.

FiskerStavanger Skrevet May 16, 2023 Rapporter Share Skrevet May 16, 2023 (endret) Its a bit early for the mackerell although the end of may and all of june is good from shore. If you are staying until june you are good. It is still quite possible to catch now in mid-may if you are lucky. Try different depths until you find them. Mackerell are like crows, but stupid. Anything that shines and moves, they attack without thinking twice. Sei is always there, near the docks along with lyr. The most general lures and mackerell feathers(makrellhekle) will get you all these species. Dont expect any monster sized lyr or sei though. If you are near city centre the docks at these locations are all popular and proven locations: Bjergsted 58.9802711, 5.7190285 Børevigå 58.9745394, 5.7332063 Bryggerikaien 58.9696954, 5.7621843 Endret May 16, 2023 av FiskerStavanger 1 Svar på innlegget Lenke til kommentar Del på andre sider More sharing options...
calm_entity Skrevet May 16, 2023 Forfatter Rapporter Share Skrevet May 16, 2023 thanks, i am actually in Tananger area, but will try to check those coordinates Svar på innlegget Lenke til kommentar Del på andre sider More sharing options...
FiskerStavanger Skrevet May 18, 2023 Rapporter Share Skrevet May 18, 2023 (endret) Tananger is just as great. I just listed those as they are just the more central and popular locations. This location is great for all kinds of fishing. Just be careful of slipping/falling depending on conditions(waves, algea and rain). 58.9327477, 5.5715885 You could also bait fish here. But i would recommend a strong rod to throw past the rocky parts and cracks where you are easily stuck.

calm_entity Skrevet May 21, 2023 Forfatter Rapporter Share Skrevet May 21, 2023 (endret) yes I think I was around here. I will try again in a couple of weeks maybe. Coastal fishing seems a lot less trouble than the lake or salmon fishing. I'm nervous about breaking any rules or paying a lot then catching nothing.

As a saltwater fisher myself, i might be a bit biased when i say i agree. But then again, you are also on a peninsula. Tell/show us if you catch anything! Big or small!

calm_entity Skrevet June 4, 2023 Forfatter Rapporter Share Skrevet June 4, 2023 (endret) caught at Hålandsvatnet, it's pretty big, longer than my chopping board (30cm). Not really sure what I was doing, water looked quite shallow, and I was using very light spinner with mono rated for 40g, (this is the rod that I have been using for mackerel fishing). I could only throw about 6 or 7 meters with this and because of the depth, I pulled in quickly. So it was a lot of throwing. is this the proper action for trout fishing with spinners? ( Obviously thinner line would be better.) Endret June 4, 2023 av calm_entity Svar på innlegget Lenke til kommentar Del på andre sider More sharing options...

( Obviously thinner line would be better.) Looks like a good one. The proper action for a spinner is when it pulls your rod tip slightly back. Obviously you want to throw further and with a lighter rod. And most experienced trout fishermen in Norway use thin braid to get more distance. 1 Svar på innlegget Lenke til kommentar Del på andre sider More sharing options...
calm_entity Skrevet July 18, 2023 Forfatter Rapporter Share Skrevet July 18, 2023 I will be coming back later this month to Tananger. Where do you guys order your gear from? Is it OK to ask this here? I can't bring any large items with me, so I would like to order some stuff. Where do you guys buy rods/reels/line etc. My friend took me to a store at the mall last time but I couldn't find those mackerel lures, the daisy chain type last time I was here, I only saw the spinners I think the type with multiple hooks works a lot better for mackerel.

I buy from sportenbeitostolen.no jaktia.no and skittfiske.no. Mostly from skittfiske for most gear. But the other two has much of the same stuff as well as a lot of stuff skittfiske does not. 1 Svar på innlegget Lenke til kommentar Del på andre sider More sharing options...
