Default Norway Sea Fishing 2010

Spent the last 7 days on an Arvor 215 in Skjervoy with 3 mates, and it went a little like this........

The boat....


The pontoon....


Sunset (well nearly) - Oh! And sunrise....


Midnight....


Good stamp of cod....


Wolfish....


Halibut....


Haddock (in the rain)....


Coalfish....


More Cod....


And some more....


Chin hooked wolf....


Smelly torsk....


Wolf head....


Oh - and before I forget - a 50lb'er....


What a week........
- lost coun't of 20lb+ cod
- at least 1 30lb cod for each of us
- a 40lb'er for Sam
- a 50lb'er for myself
- 3 Halibut to 25lb
- loads of wolfish up to 15lb
- too many haddock to count - to about 8lb
- coalies to 10lb
- a couple of redfish
- and a few smelly torsk (they really do stink!)
- some ling (only small)
- and half a dozen whiting up to a pound or so.

It got to the stage at one mark where it was a 10 - 20lb cod every drop! Unbelieveable! Just goes to show what a little homework can produce, where others struggled a little last week!

Norway has totally blown the UK fishing out of the water for me.

Fishing will never be the same! EVER!

Cheers guys.....It was truly ridiculous fishing

Fred - cost us £650 each, including flights, 40kg of baggage, boat for the week, transfers and a coolbox full of meat to take over as it's a bit expensive there!

Only other cost was a few essential food items a bottle of whisky at duty free and the diesel for the arbor.

Saving up for next time already!!! 2 years time perhaps in April for the real bigguns!!!!!!

Exclamation Dear God! Only 650 Pounds all in!

That IS a hell of a good deal; book for next year now before guy changes/raises his prices. After those photo's get around the Internet getting space may be at a Premium.

Awesome, truly awesome mate!! Those are some fish, fair play. And to think, all caught on the Woolworths £9.99 kit! Fair play, credit where credit's due!

Do you reckon you could of had some of them on he fly, Chuck? or was there too much of a tidal race?

Sinking line sydd eisiau!

TT.
