When to fish pollack (lyr) in Norway

• Spring 8–100 ft — Cast or jig beside current-washed rock and kelp without dragging through vegetation; verify visible bait or marks.
• Summer 12–150 ft — Fish a baitfish profile through the current shadow of a point, then probe the measured wall if fish are deeper.
• Fall 15–160 ft — Follow forage from outer kelp and rock toward deeper ledges as the season cools.
• Winter 35–220 ft — Treat winter inshore pollock as localized; work slowly only where current, bait and safe conditions align.
