Fish 1 – 1 Gary

After the last fishing exploit returned fishless, I thought I would try and kick off my season yesterday evening by fishing with some light tackle. It turned out to be lighter than I thought!

I was a little “stressade på jobbet” today, so I decided to take a tin of sweatcorn down to the Solna edge of Brunnsviken to see if there was any bream in the area.

When I got there, I realised that I had forgotten to actually bring my fishing rod! :)
I can blame it on the fact I have a lot on my mind and the fact that I’m a numpty :)

Anyway, I was about to head home when I saw a shoal of small fish, so I throw in a little sweatcorn and they went for it straight away. I quickly made up a rough and ready hand line with float and managed to throw it just on to the edge of the shoal.

I managed to catch 3 monster fish…

I think they are roach (mört) but maybe they are dace? I normally only catch salmon, so it’s hard to tell :)

Anyway, there were not exactly meal size, so I put them all back and went to ICA and bought a pizza for dinner…

    Aye, it was on my 16th birthday, which means I must really be due another by now!

    I was fishing for Seatrout in Stockholm city on Sunday for a couple of hours. I had some interesting chats with a couple of people about the best places to fish, but didn’t really see much. It was really cold and I never touched a fish.
