Week 23, 01.06.2025 -
07.06.2025
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 -

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.
