Hello! I’m back again. Have been quite busy the second half of the summer. One of the reasons is that I got married. Actually not only me, my wife also got married. Two is now one. From now on I can never fish or play again. When I entered our blog after some weeks of… Read more »

Trout & Salmon Magazine
How often can you find jazz album reviews at fishing magazines? Check out the September issue of Trout & Salmon Magazine, p. 73. where Tom Saville “reviws music with an unusual trouty rhythm”.
Trout Latency
On a blistering hot day last week, I travelled to one of my favourite trout rivers up north. The fishing was very slow indeed, but eventually I managed to find two big trout. The first one ignored my attempts completely in the ultra-bright conditions, making me feel clumsy. The second one was rising steadily in… Read more »
Lazy Summer Days
Despite some very crappy weather, our fishing expedition was a success. We had a great time, hiking till our feet bled and catching several really nice fish (and one monster, too). More on this shortly. Right now, the J&FF members are spread out all over Scandinavia: Tapani is in his native Finland on summer holiday,… Read more »
Plan & Pack
At the end of next week we’re going off for the fishing trip of the year. We are heading for a week in the wilderness, at one of Håvard’s secret places that is supposed to be packed with huge arctic char and trout. Håvard’s been there before and he has told a lot about the… Read more »
Northern Exposure

I´ll bring the camera, so there might some videoclips coming up in the not-too-distant future. Since I´m still All By Myself, you shouldn´t expect too much… Read more »
Sweet Summer
I had a couple of great trips to one the fantastic rivers nearby Gothenburg last week. We had some moments of fantastic fishing on very tricky trout, and I even had my chanses on some sight fishing in shallow water. My lesson learned – never underestimate the eyes of the trout! It may not see… Read more »
Cows & Flies
Another beautiful spring day above the arctic circle. This time, the weather was on my side, and I had a terrific day, catching several beautiful trout on the dry fly while communicating with the local cattle. Cows are much more intelligent than you might think! Czech it: Catch ya later – Håvard Music: “Chanson de… Read more »
How I became a flyfisherman
Why did I start to fish at all? My parent’s never fished with rods, my dad just used to fish with nets every now and then at our summer cottage. It was my uncle who introduced me to fishing. He bought me my first spinning rod and told me what lures to use. I got… Read more »
2 Fast 2 Furious
A huge storm was coming in from the North Atlantic, giving me just a few minutes to fish the calm before the storm. Driven to a frenzy by the river´s feasting trout and further aggrevated by the sound of some guy drilling a hole for a flag pole outside his summer cottage, I experienced some… Read more »
