Restless in Ransarån
Tapani and I just came back from the legendary Ransarån. Terje Storsten, a great bass player/fly fisherman came with us on the trip. The objective of our little expedition was to hunt for the ultimate Nordic trophy fish – the big arctic char. Ransarån offers excellent fishing for good-sized brown trout and arctic char, but… Read more »
Tour coming up!
It’s time for a tour in Finland now! In a couple of days we’ll be off for some gigs and fishing, and the producers will reveal first glimpses of the JFF television documentary series. We haven’t seen any of it, so it’s pretty exciting. Will we be making fools of ourselves in front of the… Read more »
Spring in the Upper Itchen
May 30th: Finally back at the Upper Itchen! As you can see from the video, the ice and snow has just melted, and the colours of the landscape are still very dull. The ground around the river is still frozen, so the water isn´t too warm… But sure enough, once the wind dies down, the… Read more »
Color coding
Maybe the biggest problem on our tours is the amount of gear. Four guys + the producer carry a hell lot of gear. It would be enough with just the fishing equipment, but add the music stuff and the film gear. Rods, reels, lines, cables, power adapters, vests, clothes, computers, fly boxes, floatants, pliers, waders,… Read more »

A couple of hours of fishing in the evening, and Fredrik’s sinking line and a big shrimp imitation were what the trout liked. He landed… Read more »
Hot day running…
As a fly fisherman and musician I have to stay in shape. As a matter of fact, I believe it is more like this: as a human creature I/we have to stay in shape. Our modern lifestyle will otherwise transform us into cheese doodles! Anyway, me and Joona ran the half marathon in Gothenburg last… Read more »
Hot day running
I’m now slowly recovering from last Saturday’s running. As I told earlier me and Fredrik ran the Göteborgsvarvet, world’s biggest half marathon competition. The day was very hot and sunny, the temperature was around 25-26 degrees celsius during the whole run. It was the first warm day this year and many of the runners had… Read more »
A Video of Lars, Lars & Me at Smestaddammen
I was out fishing with Lars & lars again the other day, and Lars Lenth took us to his secret urban fishing spot in Oslo, known only to a few die-hard urban anglers: Smestaddammen. Maestro Nilssen made a short film out of it, and the video is out now on Lars&Lars´ blogTV now. Check it… Read more »
JFF goes Göteborgsvarvet
In order to be in shape for the fishing season me and Fredrik decided to participate in the Göteborgsvarvet, a half marathon running competition in Gothenburg. It’s a big running party with around 50 000-60 000 runners, lots of bands playing by the track and the whole city watching and cheering. The weather forecast is… Read more »
