Thvera River – Sea Trout

THE RIVER

Thverá/Kjarra are one of the greatest salmon rivers on the west part of Iceland. Situated about 130 kilometers from the capital. In the Fall, after formal salmon season ends, we still fish for Sea Trout in the lower part of Thverá. Thverá merges with Hvita and the Junction, called Brennan is also very productive Sea Trout area. During the Sea Trout Season, the area is fished in 3-4 beats that anglers rotate between, fishing all areas in 2 days.

Size of Sea Trout range from 1.5-2 pound fish up to approx 10 pound sea trout. During Sea Trout season, it is common to catch good number of salmon, but anglers are asked to release them right away, unharmed.

The newly renovated accommodation at Thverá lodge is luxurious and set in magnificent natural scenery. The lodge offers a large and attractive living room, a dining room and a large terrace with great views of the river and its surroundings. There are seven twin-bedded suites and seven twin-bedded rooms with a private shower.

There is an outdoor Jacuzzi on the terrace and an outdoor Finnish sauna where one can relax after a day’s fishing. The Lodge has Wifi, TV and a music system.
