Iceland Dreams THE MID-HIGHLANDS a bucket list destination

The mid-highlands of Iceland are famous for their good trout and char rivers and lakes. Fishing in this part of Iceland is fishing far away from almost everything.

It is you and the unspoiled nature. It is going to be an unforgettable experience.

There are no limits on fishing hours on the highlands. This means you can fish 24/7 (mid-summer). Fishing on the highlands is for anglers who are in a fair or better shape, and like to walk and enjoy the privacy of the Icelandic highlands. You can choose to fish for 2-5 days.

Iceland DREAMS

ACCOMMODATION The highlands are covered with hundreds of lakes, little streams and rivers. We mainly fish the streams between the lakes.

You stay in a rustic mountain cabin, which makes the experience even more unique and authentic.

TRAVEL SCHEDULE

DAY 1 Your guide picks you up in the morning, takes you to shop for groceries and then to the mid-highlands where you start fishing in the afternoon.

FULL DAYS (1-4 days) Together with your guide you decide the fishing hours but he or she is with you fishing for up to 12 hours every day. Then you can keep going on your own if you want.

LAST DAY Fish until noon, then pack your things, tidy up and drive back to Reykjavik. The guide will either take you to Reykjavik or to Keflavik if you prefer.

FROGS & MICE

FROG

MOUS

The STP Frog is one of my favorite frog patterns to cast.

It’s lightweight and has a good profile on the water.

It also carries a good “splat” factor as it hits the water.

Crazy or not, mouse flies are quite popular, and can be extremely productive. A mouse skated across the water in the dark may entice big fish that will no longer rise to insects.

New packraft from anfibio

What is a packraft A packraft, as the name says, is a very light but extremely strong inflatable (packable) boat / raft, that you can use depending on the model, on still water, moving water, or even on white water. A packraft can transport heavy loads such as backpacks and bicycles. Indispensable for the adventurous fly angler.

TRAVEL

New Logo for Cast Away Travel The travel business is always in motion.

Even during a crisis. We used the ‘time off’ to rev-evaluate our services, update our website and design a new logo. A logo that suits our slogan ‘adventure is only one cast away’ just that little bit better.
