BANK - BOAT - FLY - SPINNNING
Ansvar FVO is the first beat below Jockfall FVO and features a wide array of fishing opportunities over 12km double bank with long hard rapids and smooth glassy waters.
Fishing in Ansvar is optimal with the use of a boat either rowing lures back and forth across the river or casting directly from the boat holding in the current by either rowing or roping down the pools with an anchor.
There is also great access from both banks to fish from the shore or wading, with some a variety of running and holding pools where you can have the chance to catch a fish of lifetime. You can find the best locations via our river map where you can also find multiple shelters and fire pits.
Throughout the 12km stretch there are many opportunities to strike into a fish of a lifetime as fish hold in the smooth water after running the hard rapids. The Ansvar FVO stretch is also a fantastic place for spawning and many juvenile fish stay in this nursery area.
