Would you release the meter-long pike you just caught? How about a big seatrout? Do you only fish for species that have a steady population and can take the fishing? If you answered yes, you are probably a Responsible Fisherman. Those are the opening lines in the press release of the newly opened Finnish fishing… Read more »

Day 3, 4, 5 and 6
11:00 Finally! A river! A river? The lady at the hotel never mentioned any river when I asked her about the map and my planned route. Let’s take care of that problem after some water. I basically fell down to the ground, dropped the back pack and slid down to the water’s edge. After a… Read more »
Jump!
Went fishing yesterday, and it wash´t half bad. Autumn is underrated. I stumbled onto a huge hatch of Bibio pomonae in one of my favorite rivers, and found a couple of really good fish that could´t resist the juicy black bugs, gulping them down at a steady pace. Here are some screenshots from the video… Read more »
Katri Helena, The Grand Lady of Finnish music entertainment, competes in fly fishing

Alone in the wilderness, day one
This summer I had a very strong need of having “some privacy”. With privacy I mean fly fishing of course, but also time on my own. Since I wasn’t able to join the other guys on their long expedition earlier this summer, I made a solo trip. Here is a short version of the six… Read more »
Above Arctic Circle in B&W
Hi! While Håvard is out on his top-secret-gigantic-trout-spot fishing trip and we’re waiting for Fredrik’s report from his one-man-one-week-extreme-survival trip I’ll post some black & white photos from the other, more down to earth trips this summer.
Lucky 7
Hellau! Just back from the mountains after a half-day fishing trip. I was hoping to get some solo-filming done, but it was a little bit too windy up there – you need perfect conditions to make the solo-filming thing work. Still, the fishing was pretty good, and I caught 7 good brownies and arctic char… Read more »
Short Report
Hi! Still up north. Still fishing, taking photos and filming, trying to squeeze as much blog material as possible out of the way-too-short subarctic summer. I´ve had some really good fishing sessions during the last weeks, catching several good fish and even a couple of big ones on the dry fly. The high-jumping trout on… Read more »
