Hi,
Mate yes they get loads of mackeral in norway and most of the time they are big mackeral me mate is going over there in July, he also said you fish for them on the fly with a good sinking line and you catch big coalies there, the mackeral are in Norway because there are dense shoals of bait fish herring, sprats etc.
Also whilst you are fly fishing you put a big rod out for Cod, haddock, wolfish,pollack,torsk etc but the fishing is unreal over there compared to back here a double figure fish is like catching a billet over there lol. Icleand and Norway seems somewhat like a new sea fishing world altogether.
