Fishing - Sundvolden Hotel

The Tyrifjord measures 137 km2 and is around 63 metres above sea level. At its deepest, it is around 295 metres.

There is great fishing to be had in the fjord, with trout, char, white fish, sparling, bream, carp, minnow, perch, pike, three-spined stickleback, nine-spined stickleback, eel and river lamprey. Fish farming and release of smelt have also brought red-bellied trout and rainbow trout to the fjord waters. There is a large number of crayfish, and the Steinsfjord is in fact an internationally important area for this species. Catching crayfish is a fun and sociable activity, and can be warmly recommended, although only between 6 August and 16 August.
