Lax - Atlantic Salmon


Atlantic Salmon - Salmo salar
The Atlantic Salmon is an important game fish in Icelandic rivers.
Both Icelanders and foreign visitors pay through the nose for the
pleasure of wading into raging rivers and trying to catch a salmon.
And as was stated in a brochure from the US of A
on Salmon fishing in Iceland: "Fish facing right".
