Sweden talking

Dear FTF Member,
Support FTF by Subscribing to Hatches Today! 2011 Issue - In Stock
Since 2003 FlyTyingForum.com has grown from a handful of people to 30,000 registered members and has become the largest fly tying community in the world. In 2007 I published the first issue of Hatches because I felt the FTF community could offer a printed magazine that far exceeds anything the fly tying world has ever seen published. To this day, Hatches is largely made up of articles submitted to me by FTF member and FTF will continue to play a large role in the future of Hatches. Hatches truly is a grassroots effort, unlike many of the other publications in circulation that have the backing of large media corporations. The future of both Hatches and FTF depends on the support of FTF members like you. For $7 a year, you not only help ensure that I have the resources needed to be able to offer you all of the features you enjoy today free of charge, you also get 96 pages of pure fly tying awesomeness that is worth the price by itself. Click Here for Subscription Info Thank You -Will

Hey there, welcome smile.gif

And how was your salmon season? I always hear about fishing Norway, but not much about Sweden. A friend used to fish Ninna Kervo for the annual salmon run. I have a picture of one of his catches and it's an enormous specimen that was estimated at about 25 kilos and a length of 134cm. It took Peter an hour to land on an 8wt. He has since passed away and I miss his his stories of Norway, Argentina and other remote areas of the world.
I know where they live, I know what they eat. Now it's time to fool them with thread, feathers and roadkill.

Nice to have aboard Hermansen. I'll enjoy hearing about trout fishing in Sweden.

I've been fishing a Rackelhanen pattern that I found on a fishing web site. It has worked very well for me here in Pennsylvania. I hope you can suggest some other patterns from there that may work here.


Yours ever damp in the seat,
Tyro D. Waterflogger.

Fly fishing is like sex. The first time is never like you thought it would be, but you never forget it. You get better with experience. You think about it alot. You do it when ever you can until you die. You always have fun no matter what.

Id have a hard time fishing in Norway/Sweeden.

Hermansen,

Welcome aboard and I hope you enjoy yourself here. It will be interesting to hear about fishing there and the patterns you use.

Tight Lines,
Fatman
Just Fishing! All life is that to some extent. If we are not fishing for one thing it is another. But angling! That's just a bit different. In it we find peace and contentment and much with which to occupy our minds. May the balance of our fishing days be blessed with congenial comrades and "tight lines." Ray Bergman
