Sea Bass Fishing
These explosive and aggressive creatures are a real prize to catch and give you an experience you'll never forget.
The European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) is often looked upon as one of the most prized game fish along our coast. They're an aggressive fish that can often been seen at the water's surface attacking baitfish in a feeding frenzy. When they bite, they take our lure/fly with conviction and then run for freedom often taking many metres of line with them. Their meat is quite a delicacy and makes for a delicious meal.
​
With us we will show the equipment we use to tame these explosive creatures, the techniques and what features one should look for to find them. After many years of fishing for them along the Southern Norwegian coast, we know where they live, but getting them to bite isn't always easy. But when one takes our lure, the waiting is suddenly forgotten!
​
We offer both half (4 hrs) and full day (8 hrs) sea bass fishing adventures. Under is an example of the full day fishing experience which we naturally tailor to each customer and their specific goals.
​
Depending on whether the goal is to fish from the shore or boat we tailor the different aspects to your request. Then included in the package is the use of the boat with a qualified and insured captain (if applicable), fishing equipment, foods and drinks, and pictures taken.
