Here in Denmark the snow has melted, spring is closing in, and in this household we have started using the outdoor shower. Yes, we have a shower outdoors, and it's a joy to use!
My fishing is unfortunately limited. Years back I would have been out many times by now, utilizing every just moderately tolerable spring day. Nowadays it's unfortunately impossible for me to go on my own, and my next planned outing will be late April and early May when I go for a week-long trip with good friends. Another friend has promised to take me out in his boat before that, but no firm plans have been made yet.
But I have no problem getting some time spent on fishing-related activities, because of this site. Right now there's actually stuff in the pipeline, ready set to get published with regular intervals as far ahead as into May!
I have decided to publish the contents of a photo book that I made many years ago, and that alone has produced 10 articles. On top of that I have content from Norwegian Runar Warhuus as well as British Nick Thomas waiting in line. And there are three articles of my own too, just waiting to be released.
So for the next 1½ months, there will be regular updates to the site, and a good reason to check in now and then.
So remember to visit often as spring breaks in the northern hemisphere, and the fishing season hopefully starts with you as an active participant.

This pattern is obviously an offshoot of the seaducer, but fishes differently. Even unweighted it sinks faster without diving, has more flash, better durability and pushes a lot of water too.
