Ruan,
I wouldn't bother with an 8-weight. 5-6 is fine, 7 is heavy in my eyes, 8 is overkill if you ask me.
Net or Boca...? Neither! If you want to release the fish, use your hands, if you want to keep fish, beach it. I have never seen a Boca grip used for sea trout, so if you want something, choose a net.
CU Friday!

Hi Everyone....
I am just about ready to start packing.. but since this would be my first trip "up north" i still have some questions.... I plan on taking along a couple of 5wt rods .... do I also need something heavier...or can I leave the 8wt at home?
net vs boga grip .....I personally think a boga grip does less damage to fish than a net.. but my experience is limited to Pike,Pikeperch, Bass and Tigers.... is a Boga OK for Seatrout ?
see you on Friday !
Ruan,
Cheers,

:))) That´s 100% pure flyfishing! That guy has style!
Vanuz,
No worries here mate, I still have your number, just in case we run into trouble. You do have some experience in rescuing stranded Lithuanians, I know.
-Just make sure to pack a few extra trousers, so no one will have to dine in waders this time... http://globalflyfisher.com/forum/download.php?id=263

Giedrius,
Yes, I'm positive that's the case. It's 60 DKK for linen and I guess towels must be available too.
Martin
Can linen/towels be rented at the hostel?

Summary...
I have been following the fishing the last 4 weeks and I have even managed to get in the water myself. It can be compared to the Friday and Saturday of GFF '06 - http://globalflyfisher.com/reports/gffsummit2006/.
There's plenty of fish moving around. Most are deeply coloured but the norm for this time of year.
Fish are picky with full bellies so prepare for time-wasting, fly followers.
One last point: Fish are very close to shore. No need for distance casting or ear deep wading.
I will put up some GFF signs for those first timers driving to Wedellsborg. This will take you to the parking area.
See you by / in the water.

i bought a 7-6 5 paine 1oo blank two tips my son in law who build rods say that a small part of the butt has a green spot should i add a stain to the varnish and if so what collor should i add thanks bill
Sounds like a nice trout.
This weekend was put aside to catching some Bleke, but due to the recent rain, the river is very high and virtually unfishable. I've got a local guy that'll guide me to catching this rare fish, so I'm just waiting for the right conditions and time off!
Otherwise I've had some lovely brown trout, though nothing near topping my 3.5kg fish of last year. Have just come home from a lake I haven't fished for about 3 years, and have had some lovely trout. So I can relax a happy man this evening.
Out again tomorrow, to see if I can get some large american brook trout.
Hi Feridun,
I was in Egersund this Summer and fished the Bjerkreimselva River at the mouth of the river. Saw lots of girlse and saw lot of people fishing for them. I was there for a week and saw only one person take a salmon and that was with a worm. I managed to hook up with a Brown trout of about 1 Kg and that was it. I spoke to the bailif ( guy who controls the permits) and his response was that the river was full of fish but none was intreasted. He did mention zone two but I chose to fish the mountain lakes which resulted in a few fish of about 500g and lots of smaller trout.
I have been looking for a good tube tying adapter and it looks like Snowbee do a "universal" version of the tube fly attachment that will fit in an existing vice. Apart form the vice attachment it's apparently the same as the one for the Waldron.
Chris Helm, Toledo OH, may still have Gudebrod thread in his extensive stock of tying materials.
Hi Rolandas,
That sounds great!
I know I'm in safe hands with you guys (especially now, when you'll not be busy straightening out some mess made by your Latvian brothers...).
I'll send you an email soon to work out the details
Cheers,
/atli
we are three Lithuanians ....
Rolandas
Atli, you´d better watch out. They may be 3 Lithuanians, no doubt, but have your driving licence on you in case they´re looking for a driver... 😄 😄 😄
Rolandas, sorry my friend, I couldn´t resist the temptation 😄

Perfect. Thanks.
I have forwarded a copy to Kim Bech and Torben Pedersen (Game-keeper Manager).

… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
