Removing the plastic

After a really weird winter here in Sweden with few days of really low minus degrees with thin ices as a result, which means not a lot of fishing at all.
We've finally reached what we all have been waiting for - spring.
So why the sad face I ask myself now with the winter behind my back?
Well there hasn't been a lot of fishing, but since there has been allmost no winter, spring came early this year, along with the real fishing, fly fishing!

So to start the season, me, André and our fishing pal Victor Camél took the car down to Stockholm last weekend to go to Sportfiskemässan, an event where sportfishing guys and girls can come and look at all the new products out there and perheps find some new friends, we didn't find Amy new friends, but a few new rods and such, so now the night before the Grand opening, the start of the season, we've taken of the protectiv plastic from the new rods, dusted of the waders and checked everything, we realize that we're finally there - fly season!

So tomorrow we're going to the same place as last year for our yearly debut, Strömsbruk and the lovely river Harmångersån to try and catch som sea run browns.

So to summen everything up, I would like to wish you all "skitfiske" as we say around here this season!
You may help me to find a more accurate translation for "skitfiske" but it would be something like "I hope you have a crappy fishingtrip" to not jinx it up!

                          Råvvejaure 2014

 Råvvejaure, a pretty strange name to me. I don't know much about Råvvejaure at all, only two things actually. First of all, you can't walk there, it is way too far, you need air support to reach these lakes and creeks. Secound of all, Big trouts and Arctic Chars. This summer is going to be exclusive, me and Emil have been planning this trip for a couple of months now. We have been looking for waters on the map, we have been reading about hatching, we have done almost everything, and it feels like the trip is about the begin right now, but there are actually 6 months left. Here is a picture of Råvvejaure. 2014 will be the best year ever, we can't wait // ZigZag
