For this first edition of Friday Jazz, we´ve found a real treat for you: Miles Davis´ legendary performance at the Isle of Wight festival in 1970. The 38-minute performance took place in front of… Read more »

Fighting the robots

Some of you might have noticed that our site was down during a couple of days the last weeks. We were attacked by mean internet hacker robots, probably sent to us by our competitors at deathmetalandjerkbait.com. No hard feelings, we’ve survived the crash and are up and running again. However, please report if you experience… Read more »

New video: Eternal Summer

Greetings! A brand new video with autumn dry fly fishing: Later – H.

The Maggots

Two weeks ago, Norway´s first award show dedicated exclusively to fishing was held for the first time at Riksscenen in Oslo. Gullkroken (The Golden Hook) was a great success, and the theatre was jampacked with happy people (mostly men, unfortunately). Gullkroken was also the debut of The Maggots, a group of musicians/fishermen that was put… Read more »

One man, one piano

Howdy! One night about a year and a half ago I was sitting in my rehearsal room, playing through my old sketchbooks. I have piles of those music sheets with small phrases, ideas, tunes, and I’ve basically written down this music stuff since I was a teenager. I found a lot of stuff I had… Read more »

Cold nights and red hot chars

Right now it might seem like an eternity to next summer, so it might be a good idea to refresh some memories from last summer! Stay tuned, there’s new stuff coming up soon: Håvard is working on new videoblogs, Fredrik tries to save the world by flyfishing, Joona will tell more about the solo piano… Read more »

HDR in the land of Sauna

Howdy! It’s good to hear Håvard’s still catching trout up north despite the disappearing daylight and descending temperatures. I haven’t unfortunately had too many fishing opportunities lately, but there’s some other nice stuff going on: Last weekend I went to our summer cottage in Central Finland. I installed the software called Magic Lantern to my… Read more »
