We went to Iceland on a cruise ship. We arranged the tour on line. I was picked up at the terminal by my guide, Ari. We drove through beautiful iceland for an hour. Ari provided waders, fly rod and license. He instructed me on my technique and patiently worked with me as we aggressively fished. We fished two main areas and I was not disappointed It is all catch and release. I caught some pan sized sea trout but at the end of the day a12 pounder made it all worthwhile I highly recommend Ari and his company, listed below Go Fishing Iceland H Bjarnason slf Hraunbraut 17 200 Kópavogur Iceland tel: +354-551-2016, +354-866-9354 gofishing@internet.is…

I actually wanted to title this "Do not book this guide," just so that I can keep Gummi a secret. My wife and I spent a day fishing with Gummi on the Fossa River for salmon. Gummi delivered--I landed a large 85 cm female salmon, two large male salmon, and a large char. Incredible fishing and scenery. Gummi is laid back and extremely even-keeled which is perfect for our style, and we enjoyed spending the day with him. He has rights to some of the most incredible salmon beats in Iceland. We hope to come back year after year--what an incredible way to spend our honeymoon.…

Although it may seem as though there are many excellent reviews regarding Gummi, please consider mine. I have been fly fishing for more than 10 years, and used to work at a Fly Fishing shop in Denver, CO. I've had many guides take me fishing in Canada, Florida, and Colorado. I say this because I'd like to add some reputability to my review. Three friends and I fished with Gummi in June this year. We went to go fish the Hola river. We were very underwhelmed with Gummi's guide tactics, manners, and overall demeanor. He tied a very simplistic fly rig on each of our rods and sat on the bank of the river talking on his cell phone while we all fished. He was rarely alongside us telling us where to cast, and after hours of fishing, we didn't switch fly patterns once. I was so disappointed with Gummi that I cancelled our next day of fishing. Don't get me wrong, we did catch fish, but this is the worst guide experience I've had. It seemed as if he didn't care. After this experience, we contacted several other fly fishing companies in Iceland, who told us that what we had encountered that day was unacceptable. Which, it was. This is the worst guide I've ever had. If you have any questions, please contact me. Book with someone else.…
