Iceland has many lakes and most of them have fish. Fishing has always been an important way to get food here and fishing through ice has been practised for a long time. Now it has become a sport and it's getting more popular every year. It's a great way to spend a day out in the cold, all that's needed is a hook, some line, bait and something to make a hole through the ice, preferably an ice drill.

This 20 photo set is from Reynisvatn Lake, a small lake just outside Reykjavik. It is cheap and the fishing is good, close to 30.000 fish a year, mostly trout but some salmon as well.

A trip with my daughter and my sister's family one fine sunday in mars turned out to be both fun and also provided food for dinner that night. Umm, pan-fried trout with almonds and potatoes happens to be one of my favourite dishes
