Coastal trips

The Danish coast

Martin Joergensen

We have a tradition amongst the group of friends I fish with. Every April and September we rent a house somewhere in Denmark and go fishing on the Danish coast for a week.
We have a great time, fish every day, eat well, tie flies and sample good wine, beer and whiskey, have gin-tonics before dinner and a good rum after.

We don't always catch a lot.

Personally I rarely catch anything these days, but that's a whole other story. Some participants fish from the sun rises till it sets, while others take it a little easier.

I never grow tired of these impressions

No matter the fishing success

- or lack of same - I wouldn't want to miss these trips for anything. They give us all a welcome break in the everyday humdrum and offers a chance to be with very good friends, fish, tie and talk fishing all day with fellow nerds.

Flies

I mostly set up

a small photo studio and take a lot of fly pictures, and more than once I have produced articles for the Global FlyFisher during these trips, and even though I personally don't produce dozens of flies on the trips, but others tie lots of flies that are fished during the week.

We go twice a year

, plan the next trip as we end the current and have rented houses in almost all corners of the country so we have varied coastal stretches to fish.
