East Ranga dominates the other rivers in Iceland. Heatwave and lack of rain continues to pest most rivers in Iceland this summer. East Ranga is the only river witch is performing up to standard. We really hope the rain will come and knowing Iceland it will eventually so August and September could be very good for angling. River 31.jul 25.jul …
Top 10 list – week 30
East Ranga is very strong and last week the catch was 497 Salmon….East Ranga is doing better this summer than on the same time last summer. Over all the situation in icelandic rivers is strange. Much to do with the fact that there has almost not been any rain all summer. But knowing Iceland…..the rain will come and hopefully the …
Top Ten List – Week 29

East Ranga heating up!
I personally had the good fortune to fish the East Ranga last weekend. I can surely say with good conciseness that there were powerful runs of salmon. I fished beat three on Sunday morning and i have hardly ever seen so much action before in one session. The beat was full of fish and there was a nibble or a …
Top ten list week 28
The salmon fishing in continues to be on the poor side with water still needed in most rivers. On the bright side, rain is foretasted next week and hopefully we will then see the runs that are missing and the salmon already in the rivers will start to take. The East Ranga has the best weekly catch by far with …
Ranga rivers waking up!
So far this season in Iceland has been very much on the slow side. Water is desperately needed in many rivers and the few salmon that have entered the rivers are reluctant to take in the sunshine and warm water. The Ranga rivers always hold water and therefore there is no obstruction for the fish to run. The East Ranga …
First top ten list of the 2019 season
We bring you the very first top ten list of the season. The season has started slowly in many rivers due to drought as we have hardly not had any rain for six weeks in West and South Iceland. On the bright side we have rivers such as the Blanda, Sog and the Ranga Rivers which never suffer from low …
Ranga Rivers – Cancellation rods
Due to cancellations we have a few rods in the Ranga rivers in the period of July 12-20th which we are offering at a good last minute discount. The Ranga rivers are two of Iceland best and the fishing has started really well especially in the East River. Tight Lines Johann David – jds@lax-a.is
Good start in East Ranga!
The East Ranga has been very kind to her anglers, many big ones caught and the largest being 103 cm. Now we are hearing of good grilse runs as well and yesterday 30 salmon were caught from the river which is excellent so early in the season. You can still join the party as we have a few rods left. …
The largest salmon so far!
Now the season has been open for a while in Iceland and we are still fishing mostly only the big guys as the grilse runs are yet to come. We have had a few massive fish in river Blanda, two 98 cm salmon and one in the very rare category of 99.5 cm. The Ranga gave a 103 cm fish …
