Fishing Planet News

[p][/p][p]Hey Anglers,[/p][p]The journey continues north, into the cold and powerful waters of the Norwegian Sea. This region offers a completely different type of fishing challenge compared to tropical destinations. Deep basins, steep underwater slopes, rocky shelves, and strong currents create an environment dominated by heavy bottom rigs, deep-water tactics, and careful, methodical fishing.[/p][p]Did you know that Norway is the world’s second-largest seafood exporter? Norwegian fish is shipped to more than 150 countries, and every single day enough seafood leaves Norway to feed 40 million people around the world.[/p][p]Skårland Fjord will bring 25 cold-water species to Fishing Planet; all the fish at the location will be completely new to the game. And if you count every form and variation, the location will feature a total of 79 fish to discover.[/p][p]Let’s dive into what’s coming!
[/p][h2]Toothy Trio
[/h2][p]We know sharks are a favorite among many of you, so we made sure to include a few in these icy waters. These predators are capable of breaking leaders and overpowering poorly matched setups, offering intense and highly rewarding encounters, with significant experience and profit gains. [/p][p]But before we get to sharks, we must admit that although our Brave Angler may be strong enough to hoist even the biggest giants for a photo, some catches deserve a bit of extra help. It’s finally time to bring a more realistic touch to your fishing experience. The Valkyrie boat will come equipped with a powerful crane that lets you lift massive fish with ease and display them for stunning shots of your haul.[/p][p]
[/p][p][/p][p]All fish that weigh more than certain weight, will be hung on the crane when using the Valkyrie boat. [/p][h3]Greenland Shark[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p]Greenland Shark (Somniosus microcephalus) is a true deep-ocean leviathan of the Arctic, capable of growing over 4,5 meters long and weighing up to 700 kg. With a lifespan that can exceed 400 years, it’s one of the longest-living vertebrates on the planet. This slow-moving predator prowls the icy depths of the North Atlantic, often between 200 and 2,000 meters, far from shore. [/p][p]Despite its sluggish nature, the Greenland Shark is an opportunistic feeder with a surprisingly varied diet. It feeds on cod, squid, crustaceans, and even seals. Greenland Sharks are notoriously elusive and rarely take bait, making them an almost mythical target for deep-sea anglers.[/p][p]

[/p][h3]Porbeagle Shark

[/h3][p][/p][p]Porbeagle Shark (Lamna nasus) is a fast open-ocean predator native to the cold waters of the North Atlantic. Reaching up to 3 meters in length and weighing around 200 kilograms, it inhabits depths of 200–250 meters along continental shelves and thermal fronts. [/p][p] [/p][p]This species thrives in rough waters, where it hunts fast-moving prey such as mackerel, herring, and cod. With its muscular body, the Porbeagle Shark is capable of explosive bursts of speed and long, sustained chases through frigid waters. It is one of the most prized trophies of the northern seas. [/p][p][/p][h3]Spiny Dogfish[/h3][p] [/p][p]Spiny Dogfish (Squalus acanthias) is a small but sharp-toothed shark that roams the cold waters of the North Atlantic, often at depths of 50 to 150 meters. Usually measuring just over a meter and up to 10 kg, it’s a common but worthy catch for anglers targeting predators near rocky bottoms and underwater ridges. True to its name, the Spiny Dogfish is distinguished by two sharp spines: one in front of each dorsal fin, which it uses for defense. Dogfish feed on herring, cod, flatfish, shrimp, and bottom-dwelling invertebrates. Though not massive, they’re fast, slippery, and armed with sharp teeth, so strong leaders are a must. Quiet presentation and patience are key when targeting this cautious hunter of the deep.[/p][p][/p][h2]Iconic All-Stars[/h2][p][/p][p]When people think of Norwegian fishing, Atlantic Salmon is usually the first species that comes to mind. And it’s no surprise, since it’s famous everywhere and often feels like Norway’s signature fish. But anyone who loves casting a line knows that Norway’s waters are full of other species that are just as interesting and just as iconic. 
[/p][h3]Norway Atlantic Salmon[/h3][p][/p][p]Norway Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) is found in fast-flowing rivers and cold coastal waters. It’s a prized catch and a proud symbol of Norwegian fishing tradition. Most Norway Atlantic Salmon weigh around 5-7 kg, though some giants reach up to 50+ kg. Salmon can be caught in many ways, but in open coastal waters, trolling tends to give the best results. Their diet includes small fish like herring and sardines, shrimp, and insect larvae. But despite their appetite, Norway Atlantic Salmon are sharp-eyed and cautious. To succeed, anglers need delicate, nearly invisible rigs and precise lure presentation.[/p][p][/p][h3]Sea Trout [/h3][p][/p][p]Sea Trout (Salmo trutta) is a prized coastal predator in Norway, often found in the cool waters of fjords, river mouths, and along the shore. Known for its agility and strength, it’s a favorite target for anglers seeking fast, action-packed fights. Most Sea Trout weigh up to 5 kg, but large individuals can reach up to 20 kg. During feeding migrations, this species becomes especially responsive to trolling. Sea Trout feed on sprats, herring, sardines, shrimp, and aquatic insects. But catching one takes more than just the right bait, thanks to their excellent vision and sharp instincts, light, subtle rigs and precise presentation are key. [/p][p][/p][h3]Arctic Char[/h3][p][/p][p]Arctic Char (Salvelinus alpinus) is a cold-water predator found in Norway’s highland lakes, coastal rivers, and fjords. With an average weight around 5 kg, some specimens can reach over 10 kg. Though often associated with freshwater, Arctic Char sometimes follows the baitfish out to sea, making it a surprising yet welcome catch in coastal trolling. Arctic Char feeds on small fish, insect larvae, and invertebrates, reacting well to both live bait and artificial lures. While not the easiest catch, it's a rewarding one for those who enjoy technical, focused fishing in crisp northern waters.[/p][p] [/p][h3]Atlantic Herring[/h3][p][/p][p]Atlantic Herring (Clupea harengus) is a schooling fish commonly found in Norway’s coastal waters, fjords, and open Atlantic shallows. Most Atlantic Herring measure around 30 cm and weigh up to 500 g, though rare giants can reach over 1 kg. It travels in dense, fast-moving shoals, feeding on zooplankton and small fish. Herring are typically caught at depths between 10 and 200 meters, especially in coastal areas and near river mouths. They respond well to bright, flashing lures that mimic their natural food, such as micro-spoons, silicone imitations of plankton, or small flies. [/p][p][/p][h3]Atlantic Mackerel[/h3][p][/p][p]Atlantic Mackerel (Scomber scombrus) is a fast schooling predator found in Norway’s coastal waters and the open sea. It ranges from the surface down to depths of 200 meters. Most individuals weigh up to 1 kg, though some can grow as large as over 3 kg. Atlantic Mackerel feed primarily on planktonic crustaceans such as copepods. They strike hard and fast, making them excellent targets for casting with light spinning gear. Their speed and strength on the hook offer plenty of action, and their flavorful meat is a welcome bonus.[/p][p][/p][h3]Atlantic Horse Mackerel[/h3][p][/p][p]Atlantic Horse Mackerel (Trachurus trachurus) is a fast schooling fish commonly found near reefs and underwater structures along the Norwegian coast. Most individuals reach around 35 cm in length and weigh about 400 g, though some can grow up to 60 cm and 2 kg. It typically inhabits sandy bottoms at depths of 100–200 meters but may also appear closer to the surface. Feeding on small fish, shrimp, zooplankton, and worms, Atlantic Horse Mackerel responds well to light spinning, and fast-moving lures. Its quick strikes and lively resistance make it a fun and accessible catch. [/p][p] [/p][h2]The Cod Clan
[/h2][p]Cod fishing is not less important in Norway as it has shaped the country for a thousand years. The famous Atlantic cod has been the backbone of Norwegian fishing traditions since the Viking Age. Dried cod was one of the world’s earliest global export products. Cod-like species’  firm, mild-flavoured meat has been trusted in local kitchens for generations, remaining some of the most appreciated catches today. 
[/p][h3]Atlantic Cod[/h3][p][/p][p]Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) is one of the best-known and most popular fish among anglers in the northern waters. It’s an incredibly important commercial species, valued for its mild flavor and versatile white meat. Usually measuring around a meter, some Atlantic Cod can grow over 1.5 meters and weigh up to 50+ kg. Found along rocky or sandy bottoms at depths of 20 to 200 meters, it feeds on herring, flatfish, worms, mollusks, and crustaceans. Atlantic Cod is active around schools of baitfish and can often be located with a good sonar. Thanks to its wide depth range and willingness to strike both natural and artificial lures, cod fishing is accessible even to beginners.[/p][p] [/p][h3]Haddock [/h3][p][/p][p]Haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) is a cold-water bottom dweller from the cod family, often found over sandy or muddy seabeds at depths of 80 to 200 meters. Typically weighing up to 4 kg, large individuals can reach 15+ kg and a full meter in length. A classic catch in the Norwegian Sea, Haddock is prized for its delicate flavor and steady bite. Feeding primarily on bottom-dwelling invertebrates like sea urchins, brittlestars, bivalves, worms, and, occassionaly on small fish, it responds well to both natural bait and mid-size jigs. Easy to target with bottom rigs and simple gear, haddock is an ideal species for beginners and a reliable favorite for seasoned anglers. [/p][p] [/p][h3]Whiting[/h3][p][/p][p]Whiting (Merlangius merlangus) is a small, schooling fish from the cod family, commonly found throughout the Norwegian Sea. Most catches range from 30 to 50 cm and around 1 kg, though rare specimens can weigh over 3 kg. Whiting is an important commercial species, especially in northern European fisheries. Whiting typically occurs at depths of 30 to 100 meters, where it feeds on small fish, crustaceans, marine worms, and responds well to natural baits and small pilkers. This species is easy to catch, making it a popular target for beginners.[/p][p][/p][h3]Coalfish [/h3][p][/p][p]Coalfish (Pollachius virens), also known as a pollock or saithe, is a fast-swimming, schooling predator common in the cold waters of the North Atlantic. Most fish range between 60 and 90 cm, but the biggest specimens can grow over a meter long and weigh up to 30 kg. Found near reefs, rocky slopes, and continental shelves at depths of 50 to 250 meters, Pollock is always on the move, chasing herring, cod, crustaceans, and mollusks. Thanks to its aggressive strikes and high activity levels, pollock is a favorite among sport anglers. It readily hits both natural bait and lures, making it easy to target with bottom rigs or vertical jigging.[/p][p][/p][h3]Cusk[/h3][p][/p][p]Cusk (Brosme brosme) is a deep-dwelling member of the cod family, found along the rocky slopes and rough bottoms where rocks, ledges, or gravel are common. Reaching up to over 1 meter in length and up to 20 kg in weight, this bottom-feeder prefers depths over 180 meters. Though not the most aggressive hunter, the cusk feeds steadily on small fish, crustaceans, and mollusks. Its tender white meat has made it a favorite among both commercial and sport anglers. [/p][p][/p][h2]The Flat Squad[/h2][p][/p][p]Flatfish are a group of fish known for the way they rest on the seafloor, lying on one side of their flattened bodies. This unique shape helps them blend into the sandy bottom.
[/p][h3]Atlantic Halibut  [/h3][p][/p][p]Atlantic Halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) is one of the largest flatfish in the world and the most sought-after trophies in cold northern waters, reaching over 3 meters in length and weighing over 300kg. [/p][p][/p][p] [/p][p]Found in the cold depths of the Norwegian Sea, this powerful bottom-dweller prefers rocky and sandy sea floors commonly at depths of 50 to 300 meters. Its sheer size and strength make it a true trophy catch, demanding heavy tackle and serious patience. Halibut feed on herring, cod, squid, and crustaceans, striking both natural bait and large lures. Hooking one is a test of endurance, but that’s exactly what makes it so thrilling.[/p][p][/p][h3]Greenland Halibut [/h3][p][/p][p]Greenland Halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) is a deep-ocean predator that roams the cold, dark waters of the North Atlantic. Unlike its larger cousin, this halibut prefers extreme depths, often found between 200 and 2000 meters near underwater ridges and canyons. While most catches weigh around 15 kg, some giants can tip the scales at over 40 kg. Feeding on herring, cod, squid, and deepwater crustaceans, it’s a prized catch for bottom fishing enthusiasts. Greenland Halibut is one of the most valuable targets for deep-sea fishing in northern waters, especially off the coast of Norway. Its size and elusive, deepwater habits make it a true challenge for any angler.[/p][p] [/p][h3]Brill[/h3][p][/p][p]Brill (Scophthalmus rhombus) is a sleek, bottom-dwelling flatfish found along sandy or muddy seafloors commonly at depths up to 100 meters. Though usually up to 3 kg in weight, rare specimens can grow up to a meter and hit 7+ kg. Brill is valued for its delicious meat and is considered a relatively rare catch among anglers. It feeds on worms, crustaceans, mollusks, and small fish, and responds best to bottom rigs with natural bait or soft lures. Brill usually hides along the seafloor, so fishfinders are often used to locate the most promising spots. Its elusive behavior and sensitivity to technique make it a real challenge for anglers.[/p][p] [/p][h2]The Quiet Stars[/h2][p]There are also many other fascinating and highly valued species in Norway that may not be on the top positions in the commercial industry but are highly appreciated by local anglers.
[/p][h3]European Sea Sturgeon[/h3][p][/p][p]European Sea Sturgeon (Acipenser sturio) is one of the largest and rarest fish native to European waters, capable of reaching over 4 meters in length and weighing up to 400 kg. Once widespread, it is now mostly found in select river estuaries and coastal zones of the eastern Atlantic, where it prefers clean, well-oxygenated waters with sandy or gravelly bottoms. [/p][p][/p][h3][/h3][p]This ancient, bottom-feeding species feeds on small fish, crustaceans, mollusks, and worms. Targeting the European Sea Sturgeon requires heavy-duty gear, strong bottom rigs, and precise bait placement in deep water. Its impressive size, raw strength, and elusive behavior make it a true challenge for experienced anglers. [/p][p][/p][h3]Meagre[/h3][p][/p][p] [/p][p]Meagre (Argyrosomus regius), also known as a salmon-bass, is a powerful coastal predator, known for its silvery sheen, impressive size, and hard-fighting nature. Most commonly caught at around up to 20 kg, the largest specimens can grow over 2 meters long and break the 100 kg mark. Meagre thrive in well-oxygenated waters with plenty of food, typically at depths of up to 100 meters. They can occur close to the bottom as well as in surface and mid-waters. Feeding on sardines, cod, shrimp, and mollusks, they respond well to both natural baits and large lures, especially during early morning or evening tides. Meagres are prized in sport fishing not only for their strength but also for their sharp senses, which make fresh bait and quiet presentation essential. They’re targeted using all kinds of techniques: from trolling and spinning to classic bottom rigs.[/p][p][/p][h3]Atlantic Wolffish[/h3][p][/p][p]Atlantic Wolffish (Anarhichas lupus) is a fierce-looking bottom dweller known for its strong jaws and appetite for hard-shelled prey. Found near rocky seabeds and underwater cliffs at depths of 20 to 500 meters, this cold-water predator can grow over 1.5 meters long and weigh up to 25 kg. Most catches weigh around 5 kg, but even average-sized ones put up a solid fight. It feeds on crabs, shrimp, hardshell molluscs such as large whelks, cockles, and sea clams, crushing shells with ease thanks to its powerful teeth. Atlantic Wolffish respond well to natural baits and jigging techniques, especially when they move deeper in search of food. In Norway, it’s a favorite among anglers not only for the thrill of the catch but also for its firm, delicious meat.[/p][p][/p][h3]European Angler [/h3][p][/p][p]European Angler (Lophius piscatorius), also known as the sea devil, is a deep-ocean predator that lives at depths of 100 to 1000 meters, usually over sandy or muddy bottoms, though it also occurs near rocky areas. This eerie-looking fish uses a fleshy lure on its head to attract unsuspecting prey шшstraight into its enormous mouth. Most Anglers grow up to 1 meter and weigh around 15 kg, but exceptional specimens can grow as large as 2 meters and exceed 50 kg.

[p][/p][p]Hey Anglers,[/p][p][/p][p]The Norwegian Sea is a place where nature rules with quiet power. Cold northern winds sweep across vast stretches of deep blue water, carrying the scent of salt and frost.The sea is alive here, its surface shifting from silver calm to roaring swells, its air heavy with the sound of gulls and the hum of distant storms. It’s a raw, untamed beauty that defines the spirit of Skårland Fjord, harsh, mysterious, and endlessly captivating.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Warm up with a hot drink, settle in, and join us as we dive into the first DevDiary for the location arriving this winter.[/p][p][/p][h3]Born of Ice and Wind[/h3][p][/p][p]Fjords are long, narrow sea inlets carved by ancient glaciers, with steep cliffs and waters that plunge to great depths just a short distance from shore. Cold, oxygen-rich currents, sharp underwater drop-offs, and a unique mix of coastal and deep-sea species make them a paradise for anglers seeking challenging and unforgettable adventures.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]As the North brings both beauty and brutality, we’ve built new, rugged boats designed to cut through ice and handle rough, high-wave conditions with ease. These vessels are inspired by the sturdy workboats commonly used by local fishermen in the region.[/p][h3]
Ingrid[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p]It’s a sturdy, traditional Norwegian fishing boat built for rough northern waters. With its compact wheelhouse, reinforced hull, and practical working deck, it reflects the no-nonsense style of coastal fishing vessels used across the fjords. Reliable and steady even in harsh weather, Ingrid is perfect for navigating narrow inlets and rocky coastlines.[/p][p]This boat will be available for rent on the new location, giving every Angler a chance to experience authentic Nordic fishing.[/p][p][/p][h3]Valkyrie[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p]This powerful, modern Norwegian-style fishing vessel was built to withstand the harshest seas. Its sharp lines, reinforced hull, and spacious deck make it perfect for chasing giant fish across stormy fjords. Its name draws inspiration from the Valkyries of Norse mythology, legendary warriors whose shimmering armor was said to create the northern aurora lights as it reflected the light of the sun and stars.[/p][p]We’ll reveal more about Valkyrie’s special features in the upcoming DevDiaries, so stay tuned![/p][h3]
Ranvika Marina[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p]Your journey starts in Ranvika Marina, a quiet harbor that hosts all of the weathered fishing vessels coming into the landing. Explore to the west into the majestic beauty of the fjord, tracing its hidden coves, or set a course straight ahead into the open sea.[/p][p][/p][h3]Skarvika[/h3][p][/p][p]Another place to start your fishing day is Skarvika - a fishing village set against the raw edge of the Norwegian Sea, with old rorbuer, traditional Norwegian cabins, lining the shore.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]While the map has two main starting points, you’ll still find several places to go ashore, explore on foot, and fish in calmer waters. And, as always, there will be missions to complete - a chance to meet the locals and get to know the area better.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3][/h3][p][/p][h3]Under Northern Skies[/h3][p][/p][p]While Skårland Fjord is a winter-themed region, its climate in the game reflects the real conditions of late May, a magical time when the midnight sun season begins. Days stretch almost endlessly, and on clear nights you’ll witness the mesmerizing white nights, when the sky never fully darkens and the world feels suspended between day and night.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]
Expect the full mood of the North. Most days bring shifting clouds with the sun breaking through, but the fjord can turn wild in an instant. You’ll face powerful storms with thunder and lightning, rough seas, icy winds, and sudden bursts of snow.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]
And when night does fall or the sky dims enough, you may be lucky to see the northern lights. Under the right weather conditions, the aurora will sweep across the sky in shimmering waves of green and violet, turning your fishing trip into an unforgettable spectacle.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Rough Waters Zones[/h3][p][/p][p]Another new feature Anglers will definitely like is the Rough Water Zones, where the waves rise and you’ll need to slow down a bit. You’ll get a notification as you approach these areas, and the HUD icon will change to let you know you’ve entered waters where extra caution is needed.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]But don’t worry, Nordic boats are made for this. You’ll cut through waves and even break ice without losing control.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]This is only the beginning of what we’re preparing for Skårland Fjord.
