Namsen RiverThe Namsen River in Norway is considered one of the best Atlantic Salmon fishing rivers in the world, and is often called the "Queen of Rivers". The British found the Atlantic salmon fishing to be excellent here, and the river became a major tourist attraction beginning in the 19th century. Catches above fifty pounds are not unusual. The Namsen is a wide river and is thus often fished from small boats using a method called "harling." This method consists of trolling a lure while the boat moves slowly from bank to bank and drifting downstream. Thus, the salmon meet the lure as they swim upstream.
