Now most of our rivers have opened for the season and all we have heard from had salmon caught.

River Leirvogsá gave two salmon on the opening shift. River Tungufljót gave one beautiful 80cm female on the opening day. Langadalsa up west gave four 80cm plus salmon in the opening days. Even little Hallá and river Hvannadalsá gave two salmon each in the opening.

Today the famous beat four in Stora Laxa opened with a bang. The anglers lucky enough to open the beat caught 16 salmon on the first shift, all massive big silvery big boys.

Pictured is a nice one from the opening. All salmon caught in beat 4 are released.
