Fishing guide

With the guides’ long experience and good local knowledge, you are taken directly to the hot spots with Sandhamnsguiderna . The fish we catch are sea trout, pike, perch, gorse and cod. The guides bring all the necessary equipment, from overalls to well-stocked fishing tackle boxes, and not least safe and functional sports fishing boats. The boats used are smaller, open boats that take up to 4 people per boat, which means there are more choices to find places where the fish is just that day. The Sandham guides are members of SOF (Sweden’s organized fishing guides), fully insured and put your safety and comfort first and foremost. We obviously apply catch and release.
