Isefjord

For now this section is about Denmark - and mainly the area around Copenhagen.

This large fjord system is a popular and productive fishing location with a lot of easily accessible spots. The fjord is particularly popular in the cold season where the sea trout will be on their way to or from migration.

The Isefjord can be fished in almost any wind since there's always a place, which is sheltered, and it's worth trying your luck almost any place where you can access the water. The deeper into the fjord you go the more silty and muddy the bottom gets, becoming almost lake like with shallow beaches rimmed by reeds, but these parts should not be neglected, particularly not in the colder part of the season. In southern and eastern winds, the small Ejby Harbor can be a good starting point for a trip. Park in the harbor and walk north.

The fjord system is large with many branches and looking at a map will give you hints to lots of places where you can access the water. Some places may require a walk, while others are right on the water's edge.

The Isefjord is not easy to reach by public transport or bike (unless you are close by).

The Isefjord is accessible from many places. Car access is easy in the city Ejby, which has a small harbor with public parking. There's access many other places too. The camping ground north of Vellerup Vig is also a popular spot. Both places are served by public bus lines.

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
