Salmon fishing in Ängesån and Kalix River
Salmon fishing in Ängesån and Kalix River
Experience two exceptional fishing waters in the heart of Swedish Lapland. From the legendary pools below Jockfall waterfall to the crystal-clear waters of Ängesån, this is a destination where every day on the river offers a new challenge, and the possibility of landing the catch of a lifetime.
Jockfall is internationally recognised as one of Europe's premier salmon fishing destinations. Beneath the spectacular nine-metre-high waterfall, the powerful Kalix River forms deep pools where migrating salmon pause on their journey upstream. Watching experienced anglers carefully read the river before making the perfect cast is almost as captivating as the fishing itself. When the fish decide to move, the excitement is contagious as rods bend and anglers hurry along the riverbank to stay with the fight.
Stay just steps from the river in comfortable cabins and lodges with access to a restaurant, sauna, fishing shop and equipment rental. Whether you bring your own gear or travel light, everything you need for an unforgettable fishing holiday is close at hand.
Looking to explore even more? Just 30 minutes away lies Ängesån, one of the Kalix River's most beautiful tributaries. Known for its healthy salmon population, large grayling and peaceful surroundings, Ängesån is a favourite among fly fishers seeking a more intimate fishing experience. Its character changes with the weather and water levels, making every visit unique and rewarding for anglers who enjoy reading the river.
During the Arctic summer, the midnight sun allows you to cast beneath a sky that never truly grows dark, enjoy the calm of the river in the golden evening light, and make the most of endless northern summer days. Whether you're chasing salmon in the mighty Kalix River or casting delicate flies in Ängesån, you'll discover why anglers return to Jockfall year after year.
