Summer fishing in Germany

"Hi Jan, as every year we spent our summer holidays on the lovely island Hiddensee west off Ruegen. We had to wait one week before weather allowed fishing the Baltic Sea. All the family enjoyed this kind of fishing a lot. It was not the monster fish we caught but fine fish in a nice environment..."

Lilli Ly med en Tycho go´dag...

"Hej Jan .Tycho Brahes dag i Simrishamn med happy ending!! - Efter lang tid med dårligt vejr og lakseabstinenser - lykkes det at få udgangstilladelse til et par dage i Simris - min kammerats søn tog med. Supervejr på 1. dagen men vi ramte ikke fiskene - hørte kun om proffen Allan Cjap''s flotte fangster på VHF''en. 2. dagen startede også vanskeligt - et mistet hug efter 5 minutter tidlig morgen og der skulle gå 6 timer før vi fik vores første mindre fisk på ca. 2,5 kg…. senere fik Snigeren fra Sønderjylland problem med sikringerne og vi sejlede hen til dem med reserverne…. da vi skulle sejle væk skete vores første uheld - vi tog lige deres 3 sideplanere og Snigeren troede, at der var en Blue Marlin på krogen der hurtigt tog 1000 fod, men der var altså Team Lille Ly!!! - på trods af vores første "uheld" ( dumhed ) var der smil på hos Snigeren og med fælles hjælp fik vi løst problemet. Senere var Snigeren så hjælpsomme, at de meldte om gode hug et sted og inviterede os over til det hotte spot…. Vi tog grejet ind og sejlede afsted - pludselig opdagede vi, at fangstnettet var væk - Vores 2. "uheld" ( dumhed ) var en kendsgerning - heldet var dog med os, da et fangstnet åbentbart ikke synker - vi fandt det ( skulle senere vise sig at blive vigtigt )… Vi sejlede så hen til Snigeren og fik 2 mindre laks - 1 undermåler og 1 på målet. Klokken 19.00 var vejret fantastisk - vi var havnet længere ude og vendte snuden indad med retning mod havnen. Et langt træk på 5 mil var klart med strømmen i fantastisk vejr. Efter blot 15 minutter fik vi et 3-dobbelt hug. En 7,5 kg. og 2 mindre laks blev landet og kort efter endnu en undermåler. Vores 3 "uheld" skete så på havnen. I en stor affaldssæk ( med fiskene ) skulle vi bære fiskene på land - pludselig brast posen og den store laks røg i havnebassinet og langsomt synkede den ned i mørket. Christoffer ( 18 år og laksedebutant ) kunne ikke holde tanken ud om at miste vores flotte fisk og resolut sprang han i vandet med fangstnette og ned på 3 meters dybde, hvor han fik fisken i nettet for 2. gang på dagen. Dermed sluttede alt lykkeligt - vi grilllede med team Snigeren ved midnat og det endte i røverhistorier og Christoffer fik varmen igen og havde på dagen på sin debut med laks på krogen og i nettet :-)."

Fish lips...

"Hi,
The introduction of the Savage Gear Lip Skull last year created a massive buzz and since then loads of predatory fish have been caught using the Lip Skulls and 4Play Softlures. As a response, Savage Gear has now launched three new Lip Skulls that are not only suitable for the Soft 4Play lures (including the new 25cm version), but also for baitfish.

The Lip Skull range now offers the following additions:

4Play Lip Skull XL #3/0 Treble
This monster lip skull gives the 25cm soft 4Play the most amazing action. It is made with a trough-going stainless steel wire, so it will hold up for monster fish! Equipped with a 3/0 Japanese Savage Gear tournament treble hook. Also superb for big dead baitfish – a truly unique product. Ideal for Monster fish like Halibut, Muskies and big Pike.

Lip Skull UV Green and Red
Inspired by the port (red) and starboard (green) sides of a boat. Really superb UV effect and very visible in the water. Sizes available S, M, L

Lip Skull Baitfish Version – UV Clear
New addition to the range - pre-rigged for baitfish with 2 Japanese Savage Gear tournament treble hooks and practical wire harness. Extra gill pins supplied in pack. Available in Medium and Large sizes – perfect for herring, bleak and roach. The applications are numerous; Salmon, Trout, Pike, Zander, etc"

Norway salmon news

                                              News from Kinetic / Fairpoint Outdoors

                                                Salmon report from River Namsen

Every year Thomas Eldor Petersen from Kinetic brings his family to River Namsen and the tributary Sandøla for a week of vacation and salmon fishing. At an age of six years, Thomas’ son Christian is already hooked on salmon fishing and showing remarkable skills. This year they were accompanied by Thomas’ good friend Flemming Schollert and his son Oliver. Both of them were hoping to catch their first salmon.

The water level and the general conditions were perfect and all four of them managed to catch salmon. Flemming had a 6.4 kilo fish from Sandøla as his first salmon ever, and his son Oliver was rewarded a beautiful three kilo salmon. Six years old Christian had a fight of a lifetime when he caught a 5.6 kilo salmon as his biggest fish and Thomas was rewarded a 6.8 kilo fish as his biggest.

The trip was a great opportunity to test some new Edge and Kinetic Goodspeed salmon rods. All of them performed even better than Thomas could have hoped for. The two deadliest lures of the trip was one of the new genuine silver plated Delfin lures and a Westin Thoro wobbler in black/copper.

The season on River Namsen and its tributaries has been good so far – but perhaps not as good as local experts would have hoped for, especially when taking the perfect conditions into consideration. The latest years the average size of salmon in Namsen has been dropping and several really small salmon are caught while the bigger ones are becoming rare.

Having said this, River Namsen can still surprise and produce huge fish. Earlier this year a really huge salmon was hooked on three different occasions at the “Jørum” beat. Last time the salmon was lost just as one of the local guides was ready to assist in beaching it. He estimates the salmon at 25 kilos – more than 50 pounds!!!!

New popper rods in test by Lars Nielsen

                                               News from Kinetic / Fairpoint Outdoors


Testing Edge rods in Panama

Lars Nielsen from Denmark is crazy about tropical popper fishing. Last week he returned from a trip organized in cooperation with Scandinavian tour operator GetAway Tours to their camp on Tuna Coast in Panama.  He returned with a lot of feedback and catches on the new Edge 3776 Popping rods. During the trip Lars was accompanied by Danish and Swedish anglers looking for popper action. A majority of the anglers had chosen to buy popper rods from the Edge 3776 series. In total they were fishing for eight days and had lots of action on poppers and stickbaits. Some of the action included some unbelievable “tuna frenzy” with packs of yellowfin tunas hunting large shoals of sardines. No fishing experience is as exiting and visually intense as fishing from a fast boat and casting a surface lure into an inferno of feeding tunas. On several occasions the tunas made huge leaps out of the water to attack the lure mixing with the panicking baitfish. Everyone on this trip got their share of hard fights against 25-40 kilo yellowfins – and all of it on light popper equipment.

During this kind of fishing – as well as when using larger poppers for cubera snappers – the tackle gets tested to the extreme and the difference between good and really good tackle is shown right away. Some rods break or do not live up to the expectations. The superior strength and qualities of the Edge rods was a popular topic every evening when the tired anglers meet up to share their stories.

Tour leader Lars Nielsen is a hard core popper angler travelling to most tropical parts of the world in search of huge fish. He’s also a tackle fanatic and has some high recommendations on the Edge 3776 Popping rods as a standard choice for fishing poppers up to 180 grams:

“I have used a large number of some of the world’s best rods for poppers, including several rods in the 1000 dollar prize range. An Edge 3776 Popping rod shows properties that will fully match those rods,” says Lars.

Lars Nielsen is showing off with a beautiful yellowfin tuna. Most tunas caught during the trip were in the 25-40 kilo range and it’s hard to imagine a better way to test the Edge 3776 Popping rods.

180 cm Halibut

180 cm Halibut on Scary Jerry

A week ago Magnus Olofsson from Sweden was visiting the Nordic Sea Angling camp on Sørøya, Norway. When using a Scary Jerry jig he caught a huge halibut. We received his report from Nordic Sea Angling:

“Thursday July 5th we sailed out from Sørvaer at 9 am heading for far away fishing grounds. First stop of the trip was at “Innerbåen” and it didn’t take long to catch several seith and a couple of smaller halibuts. A few hours later we were far at sea and made our first drift at the southern part of “Storskaltarn”. I was using a scary Jerry jig at a depth of 35 meters. After a few distinct bites on the jig I decided to fish the jig a couple of meters higher in the water. It was attacked immediately and I was tied up to a fish I couldn’t move. Instead it slowly started to accelerate.

Rolling waves and the size of the fish made it hard to gain any line, but after 30 minutes of fight we saw the shape of a huge fish below the boat. As it broke the surface it looked even bigger and everyone on board was surprised by the size of it.

After unhooking and measuring the halibut we were ready to release it. It measured 180 cm in length and we were all fascinated as we watched this giant swim back into the deep. It was a memory to last a lifetime”.

If we’re not mistaking it won’t be the last time Magnus goes halibut fishing in Norway. Congratulations on a great catch on the Magic Minnow, Scary Jerry jig."

New Big Bob á lula video!

New Big Bob halibut video

Speed jigging equipment is usually related to tropical waters, but as this new, short video shows it can also be used for halibut fishing. When testing a new possible sea fishing destination in northern Norway earlier this year, Jimmy Andersson from Nordic Sea Angling was using a Edge speed jigging rod and a TiCA Talisman reel. Using this small but powerful set-up he was able to catch, fight and land halibuts while fishing a Magic Minnow Big Bob jig in traditional “halibut style”. No high speed retrieve – just slow jigging movements near and above the bottom.

The water was still very cold during the short test fishing trip in May, but besides the halibut on the video three other halibuts and several large cods were caught. All of the biggest fish were caught on Big Bob jigs.

                                                News from Kinetic / Fairpoint Outdoors

                                                      Latest halibut catches from Sørøya
"At Nordic Sea Anglings camp on Sørøya in Norway one of the hottest areas for fishing is called “Storskalltaren”. This area is a plateau placed in the open ocean. There’s no shelter against wind and waves and for obvious safety reasons trips out here are only done by several boats sailing together and in the best of weather.
“The latest trip out there was one of those days that will be remembered for a long time, says camp magager and fishing guide Johan Mikkelsen. Several large cod up to 20 kilos and saithe up to 11 kilos were caught, but even more remarkable was the halibut fishing. Usually halibut fishing is a matter of patience and dedication, but this day the large flatfish were really active. All boats caught halibut and besides halibut below 125cm at least 10 halibut in the range from 125cm up to 167cm (approximately 25 to 67kg) were caught”. Almost all of these fish were released unharmed after a fast photosession.”
This day the best method was to use deadbait like small saithe on a Magic Minnow Halibut Anti Twist Rig. While drifting 1-1.5 knots, the rig was slowly retrieved from the bottom up to midwater and then lowered back down again.”
As usual jig fishing was also a great tactic for large halibuts. The biggest caught on jig was a 145 cm fish that attacked a 480 g Magic Minnow Big Bob jig in the Cola Cacao color.
As mentioned trips to Storskalltaren are only done in calm weather. Trips out there and fantastic fishing like on the latest trip is not to be expected every day. Closer to Sørøya there’s plenty of other options for great fishing. The cod fishing is some of the best found in Norway and the Big Bob jig continues to haul in big fish. Lately Nordic Sea Angling guide Erik Axner has caught 4 cods over 20 kilos using the Big Bob jig."

Garmin - GTU 10 finder 11 motorer og 4 Polakker...!

GARMIN GTU 10 finder 11 store påhængsmotorer.
En af - Siim Båd /Motor’s  -kunder får natten til mandag stjålet sin 100HK påhængsmotor. Siim har fået installeret GTU 10 i denne motor , så kunden modtager en alarm. Politiet vil dog ikke gøre noget ??
Mandag eftermiddag/aften henvender kunden sig til Siim for at få hjælp til at spore sin GTU 10 på en mobiltelefon. De får en position og kører sammen med politiet til positionen. Her finder de 4 påhængsmotorer i en hæk, men ikke kundens 100HK motor. Politiet kører igen.
Da der stadig kommer positioner fra GTU’en bliver de ved med at lede.

De kontakter GARMIN som forklarer, at en GTU, hvis den ikke får GPS signal, vil den bruge telefonsignalet til at bestemme positionen, så nøjagtigheden er ikke helt den samme som med GPS signal.
Efter en halv times søgning i området finder de, i en beton garage, 11 store påhængsmotorer inkl. kundens motor !
Politiet bliver kontaktet og overvåger natten til tirsdag bygningen og de anholder her til morgen 4 polakker.
