Fishing equipment
|
The right stuff |
|
To bring the proper equipment
on a fishing tour or hiking is of great
importance since it enables you to enjoy the
experience.
With the wrong equipment and a touch of bad luck
it might turn unpleasant, in particular if you
do not have a lot of experience from spending
time in nature on its own terms.
On this page you find some guidance about
equipment we think is appropriate for life in
the nature reserve of Vindelfjällen or for
fishing our waters. |

Suitable equipment for fishing
at Ammarnäs
What to bring on the tour is decided by your own experience
combined with the current conditions in the area you are
going to.
