Best?

It really doesn't matter, which side is better.
All the coastline surrounding Fyn, and Denmark come to think of it, have sea trout.

There are no fences. :shock:

If you really want to know - your only going to find out by actually fishing and being flexible. It's all weather depending of course!
Some locals / guides will be the best source for information. The Fyn guide book is good enough but it lists a fraction of the good places that can be found. You can find sea trout everywhere at anytime.
I agree with PVJensen. I also live on the west coast and, no complaints from me about how it performed last year or still performs this year :wink:

West, east, north, south?

Personally, I don't rate Odense Fjord that high.

Good hunting. Don't worry to much about where to fish.
Stay flexible and determined and have fun!

Hey Ryan, Ed, Brian,

Hey Ryan, Ed, Brian, and RB,

I've caught rainbows, browns, cuttthroats, dollies, bulls, brookies, pike, walleye, whitefish, and eelpout (bowfins in Canada) with the BRB. The trout most caught on it would be mostly rainbows cuttthoats, and browns. Sculpin wool makes a good head. A buddy of mine only likes to tie them with sculpin wool, because he hates spinning deer hair. He mixes the olive and brown together - makes a good looking version that is effective. And as Brian noted, hen works well too. Give the BRB a try, and tie it with what you have. You'll like it.

Cheers,

Alan

Hi Horstmann,

I live on the West coast of Fyn, and I did`nt complain last spring :wink:
I think a lot of it comes from knowing your spots. If you know where to fish I don`t think the difference between the "two sides of Fyn" is that big.

A good advice would be to check up on this site :lol:

Cheers,
Peter

Hey Alan,

Hey Alan,

I'm going to be back in CT for the holidays (dec 22-jan 2) and I was wondering if you knew what holes on the farmington might be fishing well that time of year. I haven't been back in a few years so I am kind of out of the loop. Also if you have any fly recomendations that would be great. I've been itching to apply some of my favorite western patterns to my old home river. Drop me a line if you get a chance, either here with a post or to my e-mail. Thanks,

Adam

I love to collect fl

I love to collect fly pattern recipes from sources all around the world, magazines, books, internet, American, European and this book has about every variation on wolly worms and buggers, dry and wet patterns, etc. that I have come across. An amazingly thorough reference. Five stars, no make it SIX stars on this subject!

Just googled my name and was surprised to find my Bow River Bugger on the net. Steelhead guys: Try it. Has worked well for me on the Bulkley and Vancouver Is.

Hoppy,

Mine were from the former Dutch fly tying materials dealer Kelson Collection (now closed) obtained through Salmon Fly in Copenhagen.
It may be difficult to obtain, but other materials could do it too such as light grey mink, light goat or even rabbit in a tight spot.

Any ideas where i could get some polar bear zonker strip from?

Hi everyone,

I've tried all sorts of wire and mono leaders over the years, but through this season I've used titanium single strand leaders only - works perfect. This is what pikers has been looking for for years.

It is possible to tie the titanium in 20 or 30 lbs. and attached to a small swivel in one end and to a fas-snap (actually what its called...) in the fly end, you're ready to go.

This leader is bulletproof - no pike bites through - it has very little weight - no kinks or curls - easy to change fly - very little visibility.

It may look a bit fragile on the picture, but I've had a 0% failure rate on more 100 pikes this season - four of them big ladies over 105 cm. No flies has left the fas-snap by mistake.

I admit that they are a bit expensive to make - but they'll outlast any other pikeleader I've come across.

Kasper/Martin,
I can not wait to see the step-by-step article of the Honey shrimp. I hope this shrimp pattern does not turn in the water like so many other shrimp patterns do. It looks like it does not. Real Back-swimming shirmps; I have not see them in the danish water, yet :-)
Please include which hooks and material to use. Thanks, Igmar

Have you ever dealt

Have you ever dealt with hackle from Collins? They seem to be turning out excellent values, but I don't know how they stack up with the offerings from Whiting.

Hoppy, thank you for your answer.
... I see very nice forum about sea trout hmmmm... :wink:

Matej....

Hei Body....
You are living not more than 400km from me. And your pikes look like from another planet!!!!! Iam living in Prague and Iam not able to get fish like this on the rod! Sometimes we have good fishing but fish no more than 70 cm, usually 40 to 60cm. So could you recommend me where? Lakes, ponds, creeks, rivers or what? And your catch on bobby?????? You kidding???? Gooood catch..

Thanks Martin!!!!!!!

I'll be posting some of my creations periodically so you guys can give me your insights.

Carlos,

No need to rip your fly apart. It obviously works - and looks good too. Very much like a damsel nymph actually. Nice work!

It's an extreme closeup of a cornetfish. It looks freaky, though. =) If you do a wikipedia search for cornetfish you can get a better description.

Nice Picture, Steve, with good effects.

Compliments for the nice pattern!
I will try it on lake OVM.
I will also try a mix of dark Cdc( meerhoentje of waterkip) and/or sealfur for the thorax!

I want to build the wayne cattanach oven and have found everything to build it except the mica strip heating element and no one has heard of it, could anyone direct me to where I can find one.

Thanks RD, i will take onboard the single hook aspect.

Im sure that there wont be many Ragworms around in May, but im sure that instinct might just get a fish to take it?

Im now going to look at the Fredde and Pastry Flies, and some of the brilliant patterns i have found on the site.

Reading some literature it would appear that in May there may be shoals of Herring in the Silver belt? Is it worth tying some patterns to mimic these?

I was in the same area last week (around 25 Nov 2006) fishing the Goiserer Traun near Bad Ischel.
