Fly Fishing under the Midnight Sun in Swedish Lapland


Details
Join Saveur the Journey for a Fly Fishing adventure in the Land of the Midnight Sun. Swedish Lapland North of the Arctic circle is a unique place because of its natural beauty, remoteness, 24 hour daylight, and excellent fishing for large wild populations of Arctic char, brown trout, Arctic grayling, and monster Northern Pike. Local guides will show complete beginners to experts the best places to fish in small streams, lakes, and rivers.
Experience the adventure of Lapland where we can safely drink water straight from the streams, eat reindeer steaks and moose burgers, take a wood fired sauna next to a river, and lose ourselves in the spontaneity of endless daylight in nature.
We will hike or use helicopters to fly into remote cabins that afford us access to mountain rivers and lakes with un-pressured populations of wild fish, hungry to sip dry flies or hammer nymphs and streamers. Local guides will show us the flies and techniques to stalk and catch the three main salmonidae species of the Swedish Lapland above the Arctic circle.Join Saveur the Journey for a Fly Fishing and Wild Food adventure in the Land of the Midnight Sun. Sweden North of the Arctic circle is a unique place because of its natural beauty, remoteness, excellent fishing, and access to wild foods such as reindeer, moose, Arctic char, Kalix caviar, Arctic grayling, brown trout, pike, perch, whitefish, sorrel, angelica, lingonberry, cloudberry, blueberry, crowberry, birch, fir, and pine.
The Indigenous people, the Sami, have lived here for thousands of years by fishing, herding reindeer, hunting, gathering, and growing crops (it is warmer than similar latitudes thanks to a warm gulf stream current). It remains a wild and remote area, Jokkmokk “kommun” (municipality) is roughly the size of New Jersey with a population of 5000 people. During the winter several weeks pass without the sun breaking the horizon, making for a cold clear winter filled with twilight, northern lights, and blanketed with a thick layer of pure white snow. During the summer the reverse happens and the sun remains continually in the sky providing 24 hours of daylight. This result is rapid growth from flora and fauna. The Fjäll (Swedish mountains) burst into a carpet of edible berries, reindeer calves grow quickly, and the fish bite all the time as they hurry to fortify themselves before the cold of winter returns.
