Henrik Wallberg
Founder and guide at Scandinavian Fly Fishing Guides, river keeper and fishing inspector. Henrik guides, arrange courses and hosts trips in Sweden, Norway, Slovenia, Scotland.
"When not guiding I hunt anything with spots and an adipose fin; trout, arctic char, sea run brown trout, Atlantic salmon, baltic salmon. About 200 days on the water each season. Born again glass aficionado."

Joel Gustafsson
Way too good of an angler for his age. Joel works as a guide for Scandinavian Fly Fishing Guides. Appreciated casting instructor and host at Scandinavian Fly Fishing Guides own lodge and river in Norway. Dry or die might be his official moto, but he has been seen swinging dirty flies with a two-hander for salmon with great success.
