We are all very excited to see how fishing will develop this season. At the moment, we are very optimistic about the coming season. The conditions on the Orkla are excellent and fish have already been recorded passing the bjorset dam at the end of May. The test fishing in the Trondheimsfjord is also extremely positive. We are very happy that we were able to register our first salmon on the first day of the season. Stephen caught this fantastic salmon of 103 cm and approx. 10.50 kg in our beat “Blasmo”. Well done Stephen.Our guest Mattias was a little unlucky and lost two salmon after a short fight. But on the last evening he was successful. He managed to land a nice salmon of 90 cm. Congratulations to Mattias. Never give up ! After the first week we can say that the fishing has been very good so far. Especially when you consider that in the first week over 50% fewer anglers were registered on the Orkla! So far 102 salmon have been registered that have already passed the björset dam in Meldal. Compared to previous years, this is a normal number of salmon ascending to the middle section of the river. Test fishing with a NINA net in the fjord also yielded very good catch figures. All very positive signs for the coming weeks. Let's look forward to the coming weeks on the Orkla.

Week 24, 07.06.2025 -

14.06.2025

This week turned out to be very difficult. High water between 80 and 100 m3 and cold melt water. These are probably the main reasons for the slow fishing on Orkla and the surrounding waters. A normal number of fish have been registered passing the Björset dam again this week. Since saturday we have now had high air temperatures of up to 26 degrees. The water temperature has risen accordingly to around 10 degrees and the water level is falling. So good omens for the coming week. Let's see :-)

Week 25, 14.06.2025 -

21.06.2025

We also had a lot of water in the river this week, but the conditions were actually very good. Sun, rain and clouds alternated almost every hour. Unfortunately, the salmon bite is still very slow. But we know, based on the information from Orkla Fellesvorwaltning, that a normal number of salmon are coming up. In the first two weeks, more than 300 large salmon were recorded passing the dam. So far, the statistics are as good as an average year on the Orkla. However, if you consider that over 50 % fewer anglers fish on the Orkla than in an average year, you can speak of a very good season so far. From the middle of the week there were more fish to be seen and our guests often had contact with salmon. I was lucky enough to land a nice salmon on Friday. Let's carry on like this.

28.06.2025

Flood levels of 80 to 205 m3 also prevailed this week. Very good conditions for the salmon to ascend into the Orkla. And the figures at the video station at bjorset dam confirm this. The salmon seem to be less aggressive due to the very cool weather and the persistent high water. Accordingly, we had many contacts, but were only able to land a few salmon. Bernd and Jeppe caught the first two grilse. Thomas, our regular guest, landed a fantastic salmon of 106 cm and approx. 11.60 kg at the end of the week. His personally biggest salmon so far. Well done Thomas. I had bad luck on friday. Shortly after breakfast I lost the long competition against a nice salmon after a strong fight with several air jumps. But during my evening session i quickly forgot the lost battle from the morning. After 20 minutes of a real fight i was able to land and successfully release a great salmon of 110 cm and approx. 13.50 kg.

Week 27, 28.06.2025 -

05.07.2025

At the beginning of this week we still had about 80 m2 of water in the Orkla. But it looks like the salmon are becoming more active. Now there were more jumping fish to be seen on all stretches. From the middle of this week we noticed a dramatic increase in contacts. Until the end of the week we had many fights with salmon but unfortunately we could only land a few. This also confirms the good numbers of rising salmon. Meanwhile, medium-sized salmon (5 - 7 kg) and also the grilse have arrived in the river in large numbers. This is of course very pleasing for the fish population in the orkla. In the middle of this week, the fisheries administration confirmed that the orkla can be fished normally until the end of the season So lots of good news and signs this week. Confirmation of good fishing came on the first evening for our new guests for the week that has just begun. 4 longline released salmon and two nice grilse caught and carefully released.
