Welcome back to another unforgettable Rogaland Fishing Adventure, and this time we’re heading to the legendary waters of Haugesund, one of the most exciting sea fishing destinations in Rogaland! If you love hard-fighting saltwater species, stunning Norwegian scenery, and tactical shore fishing with proven rigs, this is the video you’ve been waiting for.
On this epic mission, we target powerful coastal predators and classic table fish — and what unfolds is pure fishing magic. We hook into BIG pollock smashing the lures in shallow structure, and I land a brand-new personal best whiting tipping the scales at a solid 1.7lb! Every fish in this session is caught using a deadly combination of pulley pennel rigs, dongle rigs, and 2 hook flapper rigs — giving you not only action but serious tactical insight you can apply on your own sessions.
Whether you're into shore fishing in Norway, saltwater species hunting, or simply love watching raw fishing adventures unfold in spectacular locations, this is a must-watch episode.
???? Tactical Setup – Rigs That Get Results
In this episode, every fish is caught using one of three proven sea fishing rigs:
1️⃣ Pulley Pennel Rig – Big Fish Insurance
The pulley pennel rig is a powerhouse when targeting larger species like pollock or cod from rough ground. Designed to lift the lead away from snags during retrieval, it allows us to fish tight to structure with confidence.
Perfect for presenting larger baits such as:
Lugworm
Mackerel strip
Bluey
Squid
The pennel configuration ensures excellent hook-up rates on bigger fish that engulf the bait head-first. When targeting quality pollock in kelp-heavy terrain, this rig is absolutely deadly.
2️⃣ Dongle Rig – Subtle but Effective
The dongle rig is highly effective when fish are cautious or feeding slightly off-bottom. It gives the bait more movement and separation from the lead, increasing visibility in coloured water.
This rig shines when:
Tides are moderate
Fish are mid-water feeding
Whiting and smaller predators are present
And on this adventure? It absolutely proves its worth.
3️⃣ 2 Hook Flapper – The All-Rounder
The 2 hook flapper is a classic for a reason. Simple, efficient, and brilliant for covering different depths in the water column.
It allows us to:
Target multiple species
Present different baits simultaneously
Maximize chances during exploratory casts
When the bite is steady, this rig keeps rods bending.
???? The Pollock Mayhem Begins
The first explosive run of the day comes as we work baits near submerged kelp beds. The rod slams down hard — no gentle tap here — just pure aggression.
Pollock in Haugesund are known for:
Lightning-fast takes
Powerful initial runs
Diving straight back into structure
This fish wastes no time trying to bury itself. The fight is intense, rod loaded deep, drag ticking as it powers through the clear Atlantic water.
When it finally surfaces — bronze flanks glistening — we know we’re into something special.
These aren’t schoolies. These are proper Rogaland pollock.
Multiple big fish follow, each smashing baits presented tight to structure. It’s one of those sessions where every cast feels like it could produce a monster.
???? NEW PERSONAL BEST – 1.7lb Whiting!
Then comes the moment every angler dreams of.
A steady nod on the rod tip turns into a committed pull. Not savage like the pollock — but weighty. Confident. Solid.
The fight feels different.
As the fish nears the surface, silver flashes in the clear Norwegian water. When it hits the rocks, there’s no doubt — this is a serious whiting.
On the scales: 1.7lb.
A brand-new personal best.
Whiting are often underestimated, but in Norway’s cold, nutrient-rich waters they grow thick and powerful. This fish is proof that Haugesund offers more than just pollock action.
PB moments are why we fish — and to capture it on camera in such a stunning location makes it unforgettable.
???? Norwegian Scenery Like Nowhere Else
One of the standout elements of this fishing adventure is the setting.
Towering coastal cliffs.
Crystal-clear Atlantic water.
Endless horizon views.
The raw beauty of western Norway.
Fishing in Haugesund combines adrenaline and tranquility in equal measure. Between bites, you’re surrounded by some of the most dramatic landscapes in Europe.
This isn’t just fishing.
It’s immersion in nature.
