Report from Adam

"Hello Mika!!

Here is a short note to tell about the big salmon I caught in lake Vänern yesterday!

Pontus Lindberg and I went out from Lillängshamen, this was our first fishing trip together for salmon, and the first trip in more than half a year for Pontus due to engine problems he has been having. We put the gear in west of Prickgrund, but it looked bad on the sonar so we decided to go to some old waypoints. It looked much better there on the sounder for both bottom structure and baitfish. After about 2 hours of fishing a line released from one of the planerboard releasers, which was rigged with a large whitefish (siklöja) in a watermellon colour VK-Raksi baitholder. The fish took a fast run (about 20m) splashing around on the surface and then put up a heavy fight. On the way to the boat it became tangled with another line, but when it was closer to the boat we quickly cut away that line. When the fish approached the boat we saw that it is huge ... It made some nervous final runs before it could be netted and lifted safely onboard. Because of the rolling of the boat the scale oscillated between 11 and 13 kg, but it was 93cm long!! Back on land in the harbor we weighed it on a digital scale that showed exactly 12kg!! We used the rigging hole which is upper of the three side hole, which at slow speeds gives the baitfish rather big slow turns. This time the speed was around 2.2 to 2.4 knots. It was difficult to hold a steady speed due to the wind and waves, so I believe the löja was spinning relitavely fast.
It was really a successful fishing trip!!

"Hello Mika!

I have caught several nice salmons last trips and special with the small VK heads. Today we had 4 fish at Vänern and we caught 3 fish on VK heads and one fish on Krippled. I had 3 VK heads on one side of boat and 3 heads Krippled on other side of boat.

Here is a picture of the salmon caught sunday 29 november on a VK head in colour Purple UV (103). The name of client that caught it is Herbert from Germany. The weight was 10022 gr. and the fight took about 55 minutes...:-) I like the small heads.

Best fishing regards!

Home again

Tapsa with his 2nd Vänern salmon +4kg. It took a purple black chrome VK-baitholder at a speed of 2,5knWe went home yesterday from our Swedish trip, and now I feel a little tired, because of "jetlag":-) I want to thank all of my Swedish friends for a nice time and specially Petter "Salmonseeker", Cam and Blydonkern for absolutely fantastic fishing time in Lake Vänern. We caught 7 salmon over 60cm on this four day trip, but four of those were wild and therefore must be released. We also lost some good fish, but that is part of fishing. Our "Haukimaster" is Me this time and I caught a +5kg and a +7kg pike on my side:-(
I'll be back:-)
Tight lines
