Ice Fishing on the plateau of Finnmark
Follow GuideGunnar up on the plateau of Finnmark, where you will be equipped with thermo suit and good boots for a little walk on snow... We will walk up to a beautiful lake in the midst of the Arctic wilderness. You will be given fishing gear, shown how to use it and how you clean your catch.
