Hi guys,
as i wrote earlier, a few of us went to northern Sweden to a kind of exploratory flyfishing trip at the end of august.
We planned camping on the whole trip, but the possible worst weather of the century- as Swedish weather forecasters told - was crushing our plans, so after 4 days of continuous rain we hired a small house on the Laplands...so that much about "survival"
I decided to bring my SFNO LE as a "med-big" knife. It was splendid at batoning, chopping some branches, and even at splitting the average grayling in half - "quasi file"- on the evenings.
It was a hard work fishing-vise, the weather was not on our side. It was fun, and quite an experience, tho'. I went to catch some of the giant wild brown trout which migrates from the lakes to the rivers prior spawning...
we caught many graylings, and average-sized trout.
We walked and hiked and fished all day- average 8-12 hours a day.
The rivers on what we fished, were the Damman, the Harkan.
we'll be back, for sure.
fish of the trip:
and an idiot "where am I"- look:
...will post some more, if you don't get bored...
