Grän

Fished Grän yesterday but only caught 2 Garfish (Näbbgädda). I have to find out if the long streaks of glassy water are freshwater as the fish might follow these? Anyone with any ideas about this please comment..... Water was cold in around Lågland 3.2C @ 40' & 5.2C on the surface but when I went far out it was 5.1C @ 40' & 9,1C on the surface. Saw two seals far out & as there were no rocks to sit on they must be after fish....

Landsort

Got down to Landsort at 21:00 on Saturday 21st of May, slept over in Norrhamn & got up at 04:30 to set up for the days fishing.
 Once everything was ready me & my father left the harbour & set out for the fishing area... The downriggers were set up & the planerboards run out, I clipped on the first line & was sliding it out when PING, it released & a nice salmon leaped into the air!! My father took the rod & 15mins later he had his lifetimes first silver 7.2Kg (16lb) fish aboard and it was only 06:30!!!
