Fish cleaning must always be done on the boat (good equipment on the boat) in the harbor, or on a suitable filleting table. The fillets should then be rinsed with fresh sea water, bagged and frozen at home. Gutting and scaling the fish on or in the house is not permitted. Fish waste must be disposed of at sea and not in the harbor basin.
Fishing in the sea and fjords near Flekkefjord, from Abelnes to Hidra From your location in the Flekkefjord and Abelnes region, you have excellent opportunities for fishing for sea trout and sea fish, depending on the tides and the time of year. The sea fish in this region are very diverse. The region's quiet fjord locations offer many advantages, especially for anglers, diving groups and fishing-loving families with children, from where you can find the best fishing areas. With our good boat, you can easily reach the most famous fishing grounds in southern Norway. These include the Flekkefjord, the Blubberblasenbucht near Fjellsa (just 10-15 minutes away), as well as the Volles and Strandsfjord near Andabelöy, Eidsfjorden, the Stolsfjorden, the Hidrasund and the Fedafjord. The wreck of the Gudrun, which sank off the harbor in Abelnes during World War II, is a popular attraction for divers from all over the world in spring, summer and autumn. On the shores off Grönnes in Flekkefjord there are good opportunities for mefo fishing and sea bass fishing. Other sea fish can also be caught from land here, depending on the tide. If you are interested in salmon or trout fishing, we recommend that you also visit the large freshwater lakes in the area and the rivers in Ana Sira or Kvinensdal (please note the closed seasons and the need for day tickets). In good weather you can even explore the south coast of Hidras, the Lista Plateau and the Siragrunnen. Insider tips include the mussel bay in Vollesfjord and the so-called "pensioners' bay" in the immediate vicinity of the house in Stolsfjorden. The Siragrunnen and the fish-rich Lista plateau (also known as the football field because of the huge, sandy plateau, about 40-60 meters deep) can be reached by boat in good weather. However, these trips require careful seamanship and really good standing weather throughout the day. It should be remembered that you can also fish in the open sea in the Abelnes region, which is one of the best fishing areas in southern Norway with an impressive variety of fish species and amazing sizes. It is therefore important that you plan and consider your trips carefully. Please check the wind and wave height several times a day on the usual weather websites. Also pay attention to the recommendations of the owners and the locals. An insider tip is a wreck on the Listafjorden near Lista Fyr at a depth of 67 meters, where impressive ling, sometimes also large cod and good pollack can be found. On and around the pollack mountain in the Listafjorden at a depth of 70 meters, strong sea fish, especially pollack, are regularly caught, as our pictures clearly show. Ling, pollack and good cod can also be found directly south of the lighthouse, at a water depth of 45 to 80 meters, on the cliffs. Fishing in the Eidsfjord, at Cape Varnes and Stolsfjorden The fishing area is directly in front of the Eidsfjord with its two small skerries in the middle of the fjord; there are very good spots for pollack, cod and coalfish here. The sandy bottom promises good catches of cod, ling and flatfish. Fishing in the fjord is possible every day. We have often fished in Eidsfjorden and Stolsfjorden, also at the fjord entrances of the green cliffs with their steep, sloping edges and very deep waters, in the opposite Stolsfjorden or in the direction of Cape Varnes with its famous pollock spots. There, at Cape Varnes, please fish at a safe distance from the steep banks. There are plenty of pollock there between the underwater plants at shallow depths. Do not go into the small bays and harbors, be careful of shallows. In Eidsfjorden itself there are always cod, coalfish, pollock, ling, mackerel in summer, and occasionally salmon and sea trout when trolling. Flounder and plaice like sandy bottoms. This alternative is a good option when there is a northwest wind and you cannot go out. When there is an east wind, trips are almost always possible. Please remember that you are fishing here in the fjord, just before the open sea, which is probably the best fishing area in southern Norway with a large variety of species and amazing fish sizes. Therefore, your trips should be well planned and considered. Please check the wind and wave height several times a day on Windguru and yr.no Eidsfjorden (click link) Fishing in freshwater / in the lakes and streams in the area: There are many beautiful fishing spots in the area - for trout, char and sea trout. On the Listerfriluft.no website you will find an overview of the fishing lakes and sea trout spots. For some freshwater lakes you need a permit, which you can pay for. Here you will find all the information about the freshwater fishing spots in southern Norway.

Leisure - tips, activities - attractions We recommend evening visits to the restaurants and pubs in Flekkefjord, such as the Grand Hotel or the Maritim Hotel, which offer excellent cuisine. There are also often live music and dance events at weekends, which can also be reached by boat during the day. These trips are prohibited after dark. In the shopping centers you will find everything you need to shop to your heart's content. In the harbor of Flekkefjord there is a boat filling station called "Groennes Marina" for boat diesel and gasoline. There is also a land shop and a new boat filling station in Abelnes on Andabelöy. Here you can only pay by card with Visa or Mastercard with PIN. Other car service stations and ATMs are easy to find in the town area. The "white" town of Flekkefjord offers a varied pedestrian area with many shops, restaurants, pubs and dance bars, as well as other attractions. There are always events and performances here, from open-air concerts to other events. The local diving club can arrange diving trips by prior arrangement with the board. At the port exit of Flekkefjord you will find the historic Grönnes fortress and the only fjord sandy beach with diving platform. In summer, you should definitely take a boat to the popular bathing and barbecue island of Torsoy, which is located opposite Fjellsa. If you have any questions about fishing, we will be happy to answer them. Under these links (click here) you will find a variety of activities in the Flekkefjord area, Hollenderbyen - the Dutch town, draisine rides on the legendary Flekkefjord railway, the Brufjell caves, the caves of the Blue Mountains, Flekkefjord Museum, Flekkefjord diving club, Grønnes beach.
